John Hill writes a blog about his autobiographic book. The author, graduating as a geologist witnessed "winds of change" in the Solomon Islands and Malaya. Transferring to Australia, he worked for several companies during the halcyon post WWII reconstruction decades. This book records issues prior to the ‘low dishonest decade’ of the 1930s when Europe sleepwalked its way to war. It covers a small boy’s WWII, the loss of Empire, the rise of failing states, untroubled days of global growth and the implosion of the Soviet Union.

John Hill's autobiography makes for riveting reading. Covering the first eighty years of his life as he paints a vivid picture of the ‘lost' 1930s, his childhood during the Second World War. His working life is a wonderful adventure story, beginning with working in the Antarctic before starting his career as a geologist. He tells of the fascinating places and people he has worked with, including life as an expatriate family, a Royal visit and a series of thrilling adventures and mishaps in unpredictable situations. The account of John's life is interwoven with world events.
