A search for the identity of Robert Tressell , author of The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists
Written by FRED c. BALL, with Leonard Fenton as the Narrator Jim Norton as Robert Tressell and Irene Sutcliffe as Kathleen ' Bob was a first-class crafts-man, but wouldn't take a foreman's job - he said he didn't want power over any man.'
' My uncle felt that the working classes had been grievously wronged, and he would find out the facts from personal experience down to the last detail.'
' My father hated sham and hypocrisy and loved children and all weak and helpless creatures, and suffered agonies over his inability to alter things. He was an agnostic, but surely lived the most Christian life I have ever come into contact with.' with ROD BEACHAM
