Product Description
by Nicky Brennan (Author)
This book is a social comment intended to stimulate thought and debate on the subjects it covers. It is an Irish interest book based on fact, but fictionalised to produce a story that covers the life of an Irish navvy who moved to London to find work like so many others and follows forty years of his life from the nineteen seventies onward.
The author, who is now a scientist, started out working life as an Irish immigrant to England working on building sites and observing the way the Irish conducted their affairs, often in harsh, crude and disordered ways, frequently led by unworthy individuals. He became concerned with the resulting lack of progress in the community as a whole.
This book is the result of the experiences and insights of himself and others he encountered on his journey.
