ABSTRACT
These days, you can’t think of Bradford and Bingley without thinking of bowler hats. But why? 1 I am the unnoticed, the unnoticable man: The man who sat on your right in the morning train: […] I am the man too busy with a living to live, Too hurried and worried to see and smell and touch: The man who is patient too long and obeys too much And wishes too softly and seldom. I am the man they call the nation’s backbone “The Man in the Bowler Hat” A. S. J. Tessimond
