'When a soul is born in Ireland, there are nets flung at it to hold it back from flight, you talk to me of religion, nationality and language and I will fly by those nets.'

James Joyce

This book is the autobiography of David Hamilton, a former terrorist from Belfast. He does not try to make his actions seem heroic or glamorous but in everything seeks to show that the hand of God is always active in Northern Ireland.
