Description
"A climbing holiday has brought David Jones to the west coast of Scotland. Fate has introduced him to Donald. As the days grow into weeks, he finds that fishing for lobster and herring is unlike anything he has done before. As he progresses from being a green hand to a practised fisherman, David takes to his new life with relish. The days of his strict chapel-going home in Wales are far behind him. Fishing has become his one obsession." -- Provided by publisher.Tags

A novel based on the author's personal experience of the Scottish Hebrides. Not nearly as strong as the author's "memoirs". David Jones comes to Scotland on a climbing holiday and stays to try his hand at working on a fishing boat.
