It is really an interesting read offering a glimpse of life in the Shetlands before the explosion of commercial activities and increase of people (accommodation ships) in the region of England/Norway. The author reminisces about the camaraderie he enjoyed with the Americans—such as the out-of-place coastguards, blending sports from diverse cultures, for example, American football and rugby. Various work and life experiences shape the author and other characters positively and negatively. An interesting read indeed!
