Autorenporträt
I arrived in Britain in 1967 to join my mother and stepfather at the age of 14. After leaving school at 16, I spent three years in the British Army. After leaving the army, I worked as a truck driver for many years, until 1992 when I returned to academic studies. In 1997 I achieved a 2:1 (Hons.) degree from Luton University, followed by a post-graduate Diploma and a Masters' degree from De Montfort University in 2004. My first book, Stolen Inheritance, was published in 2019, after many years of research. Man, God, Religion, and State is my second publication and I hope readers will find it stimulating and enjoyable.
