Hellfire and Herring: A Childhood Remembered

Woven into the fabric of family life, village characters, church, and school, Christopher Rush writes of folklore and fishing, fathers and sons, motherly love, and the inescapability of childhood influences far into adult life. Hellfire and Herring is a moving account of the author’s childhood in the 1940s and 1950s in the Scottish fishing village of St. Monans.
