'Bobby McLeod is well known as a singer, songwriter, performer, writer and political activists and now this book proves he is a talented poet as well. As both a singer and a writer he has released several albums and books. To say that Bobby is multi-talented and skilled and that he has had an amazing life journey would be an understatement.'
