While canvassing for the Scottish independence referendum in 2014
Neil Findlay made a discovery. Visiting the home that used to be
his grandparents', he was shown a plywood panel where John 'Jock'
Findlay, his grandfather, had written his life's tale. This is
Jock's story. Jock grew up and grew old in the West Lothian village
of Pumpherston - a village dominated by one industry, shale oil
mining. In his own words he describes the good times, and the hard
times, of living and working in Pumpherston. This is a story about
a Scottish industry, a village and, most of all, a community.
