  John Nettles - BBC Television's Sergeant Bergerac - is seen by many as a symbol of Jersey and has grown to love the island and its inhabitants. In this book he delves into its past to reveal stories of heroism and cruelty, murder, mystery and romance that form part of the patchwork of Jersey's colourful history. The book's topics include personalities such as Lily Langtry and Sir George Carteret, the German occupation and the unsolved mystery of the Newalls' murder, and the text is supported by colour photographs of the island's historic landscape.
