New - A Noisy Isle

Cyprus 1956, and the British Empire is struggling to its inevitable conclusion. Terrorism is in full swing, and the island is full of British troops and the occasional sound of gunfire. Everyone feels threatened.

In the middle of this, a 33-year old veteran of WWII with a young family finds himself learning how to be a headmaster of a multi-cultural school.

Paul Griffin's first-hand account of his time as headmaster has all his usual wit accompanied by perceptive comments on the people and the 'Situation'.

A Noisy Isle is published privately by Lyon and Lamb, and is available for £10 from www.lulu/shop
