A Working Life

Work didn't necessarily define A. F. Lodge's, but his career in chemical engineering saw him live a wonderfully rich and fascinating life. In this busy and informative memoir, Lodge not only sums up the total of his experience but elaborates on the excitement and satisfaction of an amazing journey; gratification that money can't buy. With a keen wit and raconteur's ability to entertain, Lodge leads us on a story through changing times and a variety of projects that saw him travel all over the world. With anecdotes flying across the pages underscoring culture as much as the intricacies of engineering projects, the author affords himself space to comment on more than just the work aspects. A travel compendium, autobiography and crash course on the evolution of the chemical engineering sector, Lodge has given us something eminently readable while he spends his retirement keeping active and reminiscing about A Working Life well spent.

A. F. Lodge enjoyed a long career in chemical engineering which allowed him to travel extensively. Now retired, he has written his autobiography.
