The book is my story of the first 53 years of my life, starting in Trinidad and Tobago where I was born, and joining Hilton International in March 1962. I worked in Trinidad & Tobago, Canada, London, Barbados, Jamaica and the United Arab Emirates before retiring from Hilton International in March 1993.
I started in the storerooms of the Trinidad Hilton and eventually achieved the position of General Manager with Hilton International after leaving school at 14 with only the most basic education.
The name of the book, "Never say another" comes from a dislike I have of waiters approaching guests and saying "Would you like another drink?" I was able to get my employees to drop the word "another" which sounded so much better, but it was hard going.
