Summary: "From the Bottom Up: The Life Story of Alexander Irvine" by Alexander Irvine is a memoir written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the author's life, beginning with his impoverished childhood in Ireland through his diverse and often turbulent experiences as a laborer, soldier, and eventual evangelist. It explores themes of poverty, struggle, and the quest for education and meaning in life. At the start of the memoir, Irvine reflects on his challenging early years in Ireland, where he experienced hunger and hardship within a large, struggling family led by a shoemaker father. He shares vivid memories of his childhood, including his early work as a newsboy, his family's poverty, and the formative encounters that shaped his beliefs. The beginning of the book illustrates Irvine's resilience in the face of adversity and sets the stage for his journey of self-discovery and transformation, highlighting the social conditions of the time and the stark realities of life for the underprivileged in late 19th-century Ireland.
