The writer was the product of a serious affair between a US soldier during WWII and a British woman who was separated from an abusive husband.  The couple considered marriage at the time, but for sound reasons, they did not.  The mother chose not to tell her son who his real father was, he learned little by little over the years, mostly from others.  Finally while in his 40s, his mother opened up a bit, and son started hunting for is biological father.I was surprised how well I like the book.  Congratulations to the author on his first book.Some reviewers have complained about the number of misspellings, I did not notice many.  Perhaps the Kindle version has been cleaned up. At one point, I got confused when he switched from the first person being himself to the first person being his mother.So long as a young person can deal with the concept of birth outside of wedlock and the trials and tribulations of life for the poor in post-wartime England, the should be fine.
