This is the entertaining story of the Australian run lifeguard service on the beautiful island of Jersey in the Channel Islands that commenced in 1958 and came to an end in 2011, when politics and economics intervened. Over that 50 year period 270 odd young men, and one woman, mostly from Australia, but also from South Africa, England, New Zealand and only two locals, saved lives on Jersey’s beaches. They worked and played hard and were held in high regard by locals and holidaymakers alike. Their adventures, often humorous, sometimes dangerous, sometimes risque, but always interesting, are recounted in his book.
