NAME: Lynch, Andrew (b. 16.10.1958); a.k.a. 'Mr Bolsover'
CAREER: civil servant, librarian, columnist, local councillor, revolutionary
RECREATIONS: shooting squirrels, skinning rabbits, cooking with rats
ADDRESS: present whereabouts unknown; last sighted in South Downs woodland close to the A275
PROFESSIONAL INTERESTS: cataloguing systems, hermits, badger welfare, troglodytes, revolutionary politics
But a Who's Who entry can reveal only so much. Like all the great political lives - Churchill, Disraeli, Gladstone, Genghis Khan - Bolsover's is one of incident, drama and passion.
From the calm of Uckfield library to the demands of high office, a life on the run and a final confrontation with the authorities, The Making of Mr Bolsover is a moving, epic tale of a modern misfit and a political biography like no other.
