This book is about the life and several near deaths of Ronald John Caban of Bellingen, known affectionately to his friends as JC. John is a quiet, unassuming man, one of lifes gentlemen. Very seldom will you hear him swear, although God knows he has had more to swear about than most of us. His family on his mothers side came from Finland and Russia, and his fathers ancestors came from England with a ball and chain on their legs.
