Chapter 1 is satirical and witty: just my cup of tea. Its a dig at the 1930s. George, our hero, finds himself the proud possessor of a boon of 17 quid, the result of a wager on a nag that broke the rules and won fairly. But I am disappointed as the next chapter begins the protagonists boring biography followed by two chapters onof all thingsfishing! Oh well, at least it isnt cricket. By Chapter 7 he is reading for WW I and by Chapter 8 is in it. Now for some fun with the wartime bureaucracy! That over, what can George do with his free quid? How about a separate (and secret) vacation back to his roots? Off he goes only to find that you really cant go home again.
