A POWERFUL TRUE MEMOIR OF BULLYING, MILITARY LIFE, ADDICTION, MENTAL ILLNESS, AND RECOVERY - TOLD WITHOUT FILTERS.

In Story of a Short Ginger Kid: Bullied to Near Extinction, Stephen Beaumont tells the brutally honest true story of growing up short, ginger, and relentlessly bullied on the cold streets of Yorkshire.

From childhood mockery and early drinking to military service, brotherhood, and betrayal, this memoir charts a life lived at the edge. The British Army offered escape, but also brought new torment, dangerous missions, and a mental health collapse that led to addiction, prison, and a suicide attempt on Gibraltar Rock.

What follows is a raw account of total self-destruction and the long, painful fight back.

Darkly funny, deeply human and unflinchingly real, this book is for anyone who has been bullied, battled addiction or depression, served in the armed forces, or fought to rebuild their life from nothing.

This is not a story about falling. It's a story about getting back up.
