|title=The Smile on the Face of the Pig: Confessions of the Last Cub Reporter
|rating=3.5
|genre=Autobiography
|summary=John Bull was born in the mid thirties – old enough to be able to say that he was bombed in his cradle but young enough not to be directly involved. He was one of the last cub reporters – after that they changed the name – and 'The Smile on the Face of the Pig' is the story of his time as a reporter, a National Serviceman, a husband and father in the nineteen fifties. It's a gentle, nostalgic look back at a decade when life was different. There might have been more hardships – but it's difficult to say that it was ''harder'' and this book is a reminder for those of us who were around at the time of what it was really like.
