Yes, indeed. ...and it is a really good one from his grandson Alex Daley. One of the best-researched boxing history books I've ever read myself.
However, AFAIK, it is out of print and very expensive in Amazon. Only couple of copies going at 133 dollars...
It was called : Nipper: The Amazing Story of Boxing's Wonderboy

Alex Daley has made some fantastic contributions to the research of boxing history. I particularly enjoy reading his feature in boxing news every week...It's not the churned out second hand stuff.

That means a lot! In case it's of interest, there's a new Nipper Pat Daly biography out now.
UK Amazon:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Born-Box-Extra ... 1785313681
US Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/Born-Box-Extraor ... 142&sr=8-7
It's been completely rewritten with new info, new interviewees and - most importantly - many pages of memoirs penned by Nipper Pat himself that weren't in the first biography.
