The adventures of a Belfast Breadboy prove to be an uplifting tale * irish Examiner Weekend * Breadboy delivers * Antrim Guardian * a tale of courage, optimism, and simple niceness * Belfast Telegraph * Breadboy is an affectionately-drawn memoir, in many ways a cultural survey of the era, part personal narrative, part historical record. The narrative style is easy and sharp, with a colourful, humorous edge that keeps things lively and engaging. * News Letter * Behind Tony's straight-laced exterior, there beats the heart of a hilarious and gifted writer who's published a couple of darkly comical books about growing up in Belfast. The latest really is a laugh a minute. -- Ivan Little * Belfast Telegraph *
