The Rocks Beneath My Feet is a story about family migration, love and loss, and the universal search for a better life. From the tenements of Dublin to the hills of Derbyshire and the plains of Texas, this is a memoir about growing up and overcoming the tragic loss of a mother. Paul shares anecdotes about his family and weaves stories of the people he meets and the places he has visited with descriptions of life as a geologist in the oil industry, a career impacted by global political events and crude oil prices.
