From summer holiday adventures camping and messing about in the River Severn to a brush with the law, to art school, the Welsh mountains, a trip to France, and life in London in the Swinging Sixties.
Swimming with Salmon provides a funny, thoughtful and descriptive window into the life experiences of a young man living through the drama and change of the mid-20th century.
