Describe Ebenezer in The Book of Ebenezer Le Page.

The Book of Ebenezer Le Page by Gerald Basil Edwards (first published in 1981) is the fictional autobiography of a man who lives his entire life on the island of Guernsey in the English Channel, off the coast of Normandy. The book is written in Guernsey English, and the local parlance adds color and depth to the narrative.
Ebenezer is is born in the late nineteenth century and lives into the 1960s. He is an ordinary man of Guernsey—a fisherman and grower who once served in the Royal Guernsey Militia. Ebenezer has never married, though he has had some relationships with women. He spends his whole life in a parish of the island known as the Vale and sees many changes come to Guernsey over the years.
The character of Ebenezer tells not only his personal story, but that of a tiny part of the world with a very rich history. He is the kind of man who makes peace with the approaching end of his years. Ebenezer gives two treasures to a young artist friend to mark the meaning of his life—his pot of gold and his own autobiography.
