Synopsis

Following volume one, 'The Best of Days', and set in the 1950s, this is part two of a memoir of a radio officer in the great days of the British merchant navy. We take voyages to the East on steamships with British and Indian crews. We visit the Ganges delta, Calcutta, Madras, Ceylon, Sudan, Egypt, and the United States. Here is valve wireless equipment before the age of transistors. Telegraph keys. Morse code. Early Radar. And India just twelve years after independence. In 2022 a third volume is in progress.
