Description
As an Irish Catholic, I extend an invitation to all who are open to reading this book: to share the humanness and joy I have witnessed in my life. My stories are intended to give a unique perspective of the times in which I've lived. There are many other events in my seventy-five years that I could have chosen to write on, but I'm hopeful that those I've selected portray the times, the grandeur and beauty of my faith, and the comfort and sincerity that it affords. I'm hopeful also that I will always be able to recognize the doves and the demons in my life and that all others can do the same.

Person
Andrew grew up in rural Hawkes Bay on an orchard and his interest in music took him to Wellington where he lived for twelve years as a musician. He moved back to the family property to look after his mother in her later years and a publishing deal with Ford NZ for one of his songs allowed a year off work and the writing of Wester Island. This time included travel to Egypt and some of the book was written there.
