The Time of My Life

Peter McNally’s journey begins in the wartime fields of Ulster, where he enjoyed a childhood of privilege, hard work, and deep family roots. After a public school education instilled in him a strong moral code and work ethic, he rose rapidly through the business world — qualifying as a chartered accountant by 22, and mixing with Britain’s economic elite by his early thirties. As Finance Director of London Weekend Television, McNally helped shape one of the most successful media ventures of the 1970s. This engaging memoir is a story of ambition, success, and the pleasures of a life well lived — from boardrooms to salmon rivers. For fans of Toast and The Pity of War.
