A Journey of Troubles

"Life doesn't get easier or more forgiving, we get stronger and more resilient."- Steve Maraboli Charles McNamee's life was never destined to be a simple one, or easy one for that matter. Born during the heat of the Troubles, moved to a family farm with abusive uncles, kicked out of school and with little to call his own, he had one saving grace- His voice and the guitar. Throughout his life he would travel across the fair country of Ireland and beyond, plying his talents to scratch out a living whilst dodging the perils of a ferocious power struggle between the British and Irish. Along the way he would meet colourful characters, get into all sorts of scrapes and prove time and again that within us all is the strength to endure and survive, even when the whole world seems to be telling us to give up.
