'Undoubtedly one of the most refreshing and vital books about England I have read in years' AMOL RAJAN

'A voice too rarely heard that relates to the hard graft of the everyday' LAURA KUENSSBERG

George is a full-time campus security guard at a busy university. Working a shift pattern of four days on, four days off to protect the next generation of professionals, George earns just above the minimum wage to provide for his family.

From accidental kitchen fires to mental health crises, George and his team are always the first ones at the scene, working round the clock to keep students safe as they navigate university life. But what is it really like to safeguard the nation's young people?

In this engaging, unique firsthand account, George reveals the dark underbelly of security work and student life, taking us behind the curtain of what it really takes to keep the city safe, while also providing for your family.

Quietly confrontational and consistently funny, What The Bouncer Saw is George's unique, compelling insight into what life is like on the front line of security, and also a response to the financial catastrophe that many in the service industry continue to face.

George Bass is a full-time licensed bouncer, campus security guard and self-taught feature writer. When he was twenty-three and working in a solder paste factory, he saved enough cash to buy a laptop of his own. After posting on music forums and writing about albums and films he enjoyed, he sent a pitch to Total Film magazine, who commissioned him to write reviews as a freelancer. He has written for the Guardian, the New Scientist and the Washington Post.
