Unlocking Innermost Thoughts
In his second outing, Andrew Beattie captures the inner conflict of the mind through poetry. This unique collection of poems engages with reality, hidden behind the facade of world ideology. The irony is reflected in isolation caused by a detachment from society. Glimmers of hope appear to be unlocked in dreams. The book's title is found in 'Contentment', where the poet's 'poetically woven mind' points to 'inspirational dreams'. From the outset, the poem 'Leonardo', ignites the imagination with ingenious images of a 'monotonous world'. On this journey, you are invited into the heart and mind of the poet speaker as relevant issues of social awkwardness, autism, doubt, fear, depression, paranoia and loneliness are addressed. Refuge is offered in moments of hope, optimism and dreams. Unlock your desire and determination as you share in real emotion by Unlocking your innermost thoughts.

The Permeation of Tears
"I awoke to this world on a snowy March afternoon in 1964, thrusted into the bowels of Glenbryn, Ardoyne. It was a peaceful almost tranquil place in those days where religion was never mention. Then in 1969 it was to be in the eye of the storm." For over 30 years the Troubles of Northern Ireland was headline news around the world. Nearly every family in the province was touched by some type of the violence; whether it be bombing, shooting, rioting, kidnapping. Many, many innocent people suffered. In the midst of those children being born into the conflict Andrew (Andy) Beattie was born. Raised in one of the most dangerous areas in Belfast he sought like any other child to stay alive and that norm was... barricades across the street, hooded gunmen, staying away from 'the other side, ' it was safer not to enter that community. In this remarkable book Andrew takes the darkness of yesterdays and brings light through them in his poetry of The Permeation of Tears.

The Alps
The Alps are Europe's highest mountain range: their broad arc stretches right across the center of the continent, encompassing a wide range of traditions and cultures. Andrew Beattie explores the turbulent past and vibrant present of this landscape, where early pioneers of tourism, mountaineering, and scientific research, along with the enduring legacies of historical regimes from the Romans to the Nazis, have all left their mark.
The Permeation of Tears
Andrew Beattie was born in 1964 which made me five years of age when the troubles in Northern Ireland first broke out."I grew up in the protestant side of Ardoyne and witnessed some of the worst violence in North Belfast. From the early 1970's and right through the 1980's.The people sadly accepted this as normality, Going about their daily business, living and surviving as best they could. It was very sad to see the two communities rip each other apart through the use of terrorist organisations, who maimed and killed just because a person came from the other side of the religious divide. These are my poems which are based around these cruel times. I hope you the reader can get some sort of insight into these events. And by reading my poetry I hope you can reflect for a few moments and feel the sheer madness we had to endure."

The Secret in the Tower
1485. Richard III is King of England. Henry Tudor's invasion looms. Jack Broom thinks that war and politics have nothing to do with him.

Following in the Footsteps of the Princes in the Tower
A journey into the 15th century, as the heir to the throne and his brother are imprisoned in the Tower of London—their fate a mystery to this day. The story of the Princes in the Tower is well known—the grim but dramatic events of 1483, when the twelve-year-old Edward Plantagenet was taken into custody by his uncle, Richard of Gloucester, and imprisoned in the Tower of London along with his younger brother, have been told and retold. The true events of that year remain shrouded in mystery, and the end of the young princes’ lives are an infamous part of the Wars of the Roses and Richard III’s reign. Yet little about their lives is commonly known. Following the Footsteps of the Princes of the Tower tells the story in a way that is wholly new: through the places where the events actually unfolded. It reveals the lives of the princes through the places they lived and visited. From Westminster Abbey to the Tower of London itself, and from the remote English castles of Ludlow and Middleham to the quiet Midlands town of Stony Stratford, the trail through some of England’s most historic places throws a whole new light on this most compelling of historical dramas.
