He also looks back at:Belfast's rich history of shipbuilding;life growing under apartheid;joys and disappointments of childhood;becoming a champion boxer;conquering the world of advertising.Despite his success in the corporate world, it's been Callaghan's work as an artist and musician that has truly captured the attention of the world. He shares the many adventures that made him who he is in The Last Minstrel.
