THE ADVENTURES OF AN ECONOMIC MIGRANT
The Adventures of an Economic Migrant is a ‘human interest’ filled story.
Engagement at the grassroots in his community led to leadership roles which eventually became the bedrock of a career which over the years was to grow the author into a rounded business personality.
The narrative of this book is electrifying, and embodies a rich mix of heart warming cultural stories of island life in Montserrat from which he hailed – the discovery of his dual heritage (Irish and African) is intriguing as is his boyhood pursuits and ambitions.
A romantic at heart, are stories of the three women with whom Tony Wade fell in love and subsequently married all three. These stories are neatly woven into his autobiography.
The intriguing story of how he established the most successful black enterprise in 20th century Britain at a time when it was difficult to obtain business financing, penetrate the market and succeed in building a multi million pound company is awe inspiring.
The author’s success kindled the spirit of ‘enterprise’ which has touched the lives of the entire black community in Britain. Tony Wade has filled several senior positions in the wider society, and carved out a place in the black social history of Britain.
While several publications attest to his legacy, perhaps nothing illuminates this in more graphic detail than his civic leadership of the redevelopment of the Stonebridge Housing Action Trust and became the first black chairman of a quango. The Trust stands out as one of the most successful inner-city redevelopment community projects in the entire UK.
Former Prime Minister, Mrs Margaret Thacther refers to Tony Wade as “someone who is doing the country proud”.He was honoured in 1987 with an MBE, for his contribution to employment, and a ‘Lifetime Achievement in Business Award 2005’ at the Guildhall Hall London.
Adventures of an Economic Migrant is a pleasurable and relaxed read of an awe inspiring story.
