From Belfast's Sandy Row to Buckingham Palace
John Gibson was born just off Belfast's Sandy Row in 1926. Yet less than twenty years later he was able to give his address correctly as Buckingham Palace SW1. His career as servant to the great took him from kitchen boy to footman to the Princess Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh; and he still found time to serve as valet to Winston Churchill. The account of this right royal career is told with an unusual humour and candour. The occasional reminiscence of the starkly contrasted life of his youth adds to the pleasure of a remarkably fresh and genial memoir of one who did more than just stand and wait.
