MEN ON THE HILL

A double graduate in engineering and German, Oliver E Cadam spent much of his early working life in heavy industry before succumbing to the attractions of the City of London and its supposedly easy pickings. He plied his developing investment expertise across the European business marketplace from Milan to Stockholm and Dublin to Vienna, spending most of his time in the German- and French-speaking business world before moving gently into semi-retirement. Then he started to write, drawing on a great wealth of personal, political and business experiences, which he hopes lend richness and credibility to his tales. He remains passionate about many things, including but not limited to culture and language, travel, geography, food, fitness (cycling, rowing and rugby specifically), politics, economics and the arts. One day he will get back to those oils and acrylics of his youth, but not yet. There are still a few more books in his head, each one jostling for his attention. Oliver lives with his wife in Suffolk, England. Their adult children are spread conveniently about the globe, offering useful stopovers for the next big trip!
