Zusammenfassung:This book is a record of my life in and reactions to Libya during the two periods I have lived there: first as a British army conscript in Tripolitania from June 1950 to July 1951, then as a university teacher in Cyrenaica from September 1965 to July 1967. That there is a connection between the two - that my second stay was the result of my first - quickly becomes apparent.

One thinks of those public school Captains of Games who, on leaving university, tunnel back as quickly as possible into the gold.
