Boy 11963: An Irish Industrial School Childhood and an Extraordinary Search for Home

by John Cameron

Book Overview

'Truth telling and truth recovery have seldom been as heart-breaking or necessary as in this powerful story of human vulnerability and failure - and the ultimate triumph of the human spirit.' JOE DUFFY

age three. In 1944 when he turned eight, he was incarcerated in Artane Industrial School, where he became boy 11963.
