Howard Hoyle

Born in 1950s England, the author grew up in a south ‎Manchester council estate and was raised within a ‎family of seven. This no-nonsense book will be a ‎valuable source of information to all those readers ‎who endeavour to read it. Written from the heart, the ‎author conveys a wealth of knowledge and ‎experience from his own lifetime encounters. Written ‎by the working class for the working class - and ‎anybody else who is on this level - A Shoestring and ‎a Prayer offers all readers the chance to learn how to ‎cope the best way possible in these difficult times that ‎lie ahead. Honest facts and eminent truths from a ‎straight-talking individual who lives on the same level ‎and walks the same streets. A must read for anyone in ‎hard times.‎
