Publisher's Synopsis
In his first book, A Vintage Port, John Brown recalled his early life in Greenock and Port Glasgow - those twin towns clinging to the south bank of the River Clyde - reminiscing about his childhood and early days in Port Glasgow. Now, in A Case of Export, John continues his story. Education at Greenock Academy affords him greater opportunities, not only in education but also social activities. The many friends he makes there - fellow students, teachers and ministers - will greatly influenced his subsequent career. University follows at a time when the computer age is dawning. The family move to the south of England - opening up job opportunities for both father and son. After a successful career in electronics, John returns to Scotland, always remembering the humour and way of life of his hometowns even though the twenty-first century has brought great change.
