Fifty years of countless adventures and experiences were distilled into one year of joyful writing to produce this account of travels and wanderings in off-the-beaten-track cities and towns and villages of little known Spain.In a series of articles -often irreverent and opinionated, sometimes openly critical of accepted opinion, yet humorous and well documented- the author shows a profound respect for the essential Spain: its history and culture, and, most of all, for its people.It will appeal to readers with a sense of humour who prefer to travel independently and come to their own conclusions about what they see and hear and experience.
In the early days of September, 1956, the author moved from the comfort-zone of Holy Trinity Catholic Junior School - Holy Tripe, some called it - on Garston's Banks Road, to De La Salle Grammar School, Dwerryhouse Lane, out in the wilds of distant Norris Green and Croxteth and Lord Sefton's sprawling Estate. There, his previously simple world collided with a seemingly endless stream of character-full fellow students and (in many cases) eccentric teachers. These experiences are told in an innocent, disarming, refreshingly honest manner, almost objectively at times; and whilst criticism naturally abounds, there are few occasions where the lighter side of life doesn't shine through.
Going through all twenty-seven letters of the Spanish alphabet, the author takes us from little-known Ayllón to industrial Mieres to monumental Zamora and places in between and beyond, all scattered around the four corners of this land he knows so intimately.We meet colourful characters and surprising situations, humour and irreverence, undisguised criticism and limitless praise, independent opinions and a deep respect for the essence of Spain past and present: for its history and culture and - most of all - for its people.

The incredible, sometimes shocking, story of the 75-year search and its key players has never been fully told until now.
