Billy - Pamela Stephenson

BILLY CONNOLLY was born in poverty-stricken Glasgow, his childhood filled with abandonment, neglect, verbal and physical abuse. He was once told: "You will come to nothing". How wrong can you be?

Life as a comedian was an uphill struggle as his material was labelled outrageous, making it harder for him to succeed.

This is a fantastic book, written by his wife, but with Billy's sense of humour shining through.
