FROM ALEX(ANDRIA) WITH LOVE is a childhood memoir.

It is the true story of how an Armenian-Greek boy from a middle class family found himself cast out from his beloved home in Alexandria when 150,000 Greeks were driven from Egypt by President Nasser's nationalisation campaign and the Arab-Israeli War loomed; how his penniless mother struggled to look after him in the late 1960s in a council flat in the red-light district of Plymouth; and how, despite being an uneducated, non-English-speaking immigrant, he was able to cast deep into the well of rich experiences, which shaped his character growing up on the streets of Alexandria, to win a place at a UK university and ultimately become president of one of the leading brands in the hospitality industry.
