The Forester Fortune

"Starting out with nothing, good management and good fortune enabled the Foresters to rise from rags to riches over four generations. The wealth thus acquired by the family provided its younger members with an opportunity for the best possible start in life but that same wealth did not always bring contentment and happiness. On the contrary, for some of them, and also for some others, it resulted in the very opposite." Harry Calvert is Professor Emeritus in Law in the University of Wales. He worked in many Commonwealth jurisdictions before settling in Wales in 1975. He lives in the Rhondda Valley with his wife, Heather, and their Welsh border collie, Coco. He is 85 years old and slowly declining.
