'This is not a book for journalists. Civil servants, too, will feel
uneasy while reading it, and as for lawyers, they will never sleep
again. For it is about a man in his capacity as homo faber, a maker
of things with his hands, and what has any of us ever made but
words. I say it is "about" the man who makes; truly, it is more a
hymn of praise than a description, and not only because the toiler
who is the hero of the book is a hero indeed - a figure, in his
humanity, simplicity, worthy of inclusion in the catalogue of
mythical giants alongside Hercules, Atlas, Gargantua and Orion. He
is Faussone, a rigger' Bernard Levin, The Times
General
