My Life Began at Forty

Michael Irwin is an author and former prisoner who was spent six years in prison for drug trafficking. Whilst incarcerated Michael dedicated himself to academia and rehabilitation. He also wrote a journal detailing his daily life and progress. This book provides a fascinating glimpse into the everyday world of prisons, something that the most of us would never experience in our lives. It also shows the journey of how a man left with nothing, turned his life around and became an absolute success.
