This book is a compilation of true events which occured in the author's childhood, teenage years...and beyond. It tells of community life in a British Colony, the discipline and respect for authority, spiritual lessons taught, the happy times enjoyed by all before the advent of television and video games, doing chores, truancy and skirmishes which makes one aware that there is nothing new under the sun.

A brief history of the area known as Linden which was settled by the Scottish in the late 1700's, the first of whom was R.F.Allicock, the ancestor of most of my schoolmates, is also included.

The book concludes with a history of the author's family, both maternal and paternal branches. Special emphasis is placed on the role played by the author's mother in binding and keeping the family together through trying times, her demise as a result of a politically engineered terrorist attack in 1964, and the rewards of her labours which followed her.
