His second volume, covering 1952-1959 tells of his life as a student at university and seminary, his marriage, the births of two children, his ordination and parish life near London and the family's emigration to Canada. This third volume introduces the reader to their fresh experiences in a new country and Colin's pastoral and academic ministry in Sudbury, Ontario (The Big Nickel was a centennial project).

Significant events that touched the world occurred in the 1960's and a number of them, such as the Cuban missile crisis, are appropriately described in this book and will doubtless stir memories among many of its readers.
