'One Man's Mountain' is a powerful and energetic memoir describing how what seem to be distant and unachievable dreams can become real and develop into a life's experience that is way beyond what was thought possible.The book depicts life's experiences leading from war-time to normal peacetime living. An ordinary suburban lifestyle enables the writer to explore and adventure on two wheels and brings to life a competitive spirit, which causes the writer to see and develop an ambition. The goal to be achieved centres upon an island in the Irish Sea, yet seems beyond reach. The difficulty is that it combined the need to ride and earn a living! Yet strangely, work and play relate.
