Blessed Are the Meek

The terrorist smuggled out of Palestine by the British Army after bombing the Jewish Press Agency in Jerusalem.The man who put a radical theory on the speed of light to an eminent theoretical physicist who 18 years later published what appeared to be the same theory.The developer of a political philosophy which if followed would end Middle Eastern conflict and check the unfettered excesses of capitalism.The youngest chief engineer in the history of one of the world's biggest oil companies, running the fleet's newest and biggest oil tanker.The family man whose six decades of devoted love for his wife died only when he did.Jack May was all of these things - a truly remarkable man whose life has passed without remark. His fully illustrated autobiography details this adventurous life, against the romantic background of 38 years as a seagoing engineer and fleet manager, the places he visited, the people he met, from pre-War voyages on tramp steamers to working as chief engineer on supertankers during the dangerous Persian Gulf conflict of the eighties. It creates news with well documented confirmation of his terrorist bombing activities, and his theory on the speed of light. It is a very good read.
