"Their conclusion was that I would not ever achieve anything worthwhile... The thing to do is we will get rid of you, send you to England, and forget we ever had you."
And they did.
And never spoke to me again.
In 1956, eighteen-year-old Lindsay Louise sailed from Mauritius to England, cast out by his own family. What followed was a life neither of them could have imagined: twenty years in the Royal Air Force facing racism and systemic discrimination, a chance meeting with a Spanish woman whose father vowed revenge, three sons raised while he sailed the world's oceans, and a maritime career earned against impossible odds.
From the mango tree at 30 Stevenson Street in Rose-Hill to the chemical tankers of the North Sea, Lindsay's memoir is told with brutal honesty, sharp wit, and surprising tenderness. This is a story of family betrayal and chosen family, of beatings endured and barriers overcome, of a man who refused to disappear.
