As the author rightly says, this book is not for the faint-hearted or the nervously disposed. It is probably unsuitable for vegetarians and 'political correctness' remained an unknown concept when many of the incidents he describes occurred. It took many years in the writing and perusing of old notes and diaries, names had to be changed not so much to protect the innocent (who as always are few in number) as much as to avoid offending the survivors among that fast dwindling band of those who were once known as 'Old Coasters.' It perhaps describes a more honest world than we live in today.Adamson, Paul is the author of 'Still None the Wiser: A Mid-Century Passage 1952-1967', published 2007 under ISBN 9781425971762 and ISBN 1425971768.
