The child of Irish immigrants, Andy Coogan was born on April Fool’s Day 1917. From a poverty-stricken boyhood in the Gorbals to being tipped as an Olympic runner, then being taken prisoner by the Japanese and on to the atomic wasteland of Nagasaki, his life story is vividly recounted in Tomorrow You Die. Graham Ogilvy, the journalist who helped write the memoir, joins the 94 year old Coogan for this event. Part of Edinburgh International Book Festival
