What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, and Christy Fleming has developed
strength to deal with the many adversities that life has thrown at him.
In his autobiography, Christy describes his happy, young life in Markievicz House on Townsend Street, Dublin, followed by the horrors of Industrial Schools of Cork, the camaraderie of the battlefields of
the Congo, and a variety of jobs including construction work in London’s underground and bus conducting in the centre of London.
A diploma in clerical bookkeeping showed his will to seek the best for his wife and family. All of this despite epilepsy which for many years went undiagnosed and was an impediment to keeping jobs, leading to violent eviction from flats. So much to tell all in one book. This is the story of a survivor.
