Heart Of A Lamb, Courage Of A Lion

Written by first-time author Boab Curran, ‘Heart of a Lamb Courage of a Lion’ tells a heart-breaking story of the life of the writer from early years growing up in 60’s Dundee to life as an acclaimed amateur fighter and Royal Engineer. Make no mistake; this is a very brave piece to have been written. Whilst many have penned autobiographies, I can think of none that have offered themselves so ‘warts and all’ as Curran. The Scotsman endured a brutal upbringing at the hands of a violent alcoholic father and suffered more of the same growing up attending tough Catholic schools. Beaten to a pulp by his Dad, teachers and school bullies on a regular basis, the tiny lad not only suffered physical hurt but deep emotional scars that remain to this very day.
