This book is an account of how a boy born into a poor Irish family grew up in Ireland in the 1920's through the 30's, 40's and 50's, and what life and work was like.

It is at times saddening to read the experiences that he had, but throughout demonstrates the courage and fortitude that he gained from that young hard life, that carried him through to build a life and family.
