Summary of this Book...
Delaney intertwines a mesmerizing story about a boy and his quest for self-discovery with the tallish tales of engineers, saints, sailors, soldiers—and leprechauns—all of which are constructed with equal parts history and mystery and which enthrall common folk who dwell within Ireland’s enticing shores.
Further Comments...
Delaney’s Ireland, which should be required reading for anyone enrolled in Ireland 101, will grab you by the collar, whether you like it or not, as a master storyteller unveils the fabric that binds the people of his homeland—whether you have emigrated from or remain on the Emerald Isle, or only are Irish on Saint Patrick’s Day.

Ireland will thrill you through and through, enlighten you to tears, and capture your soul when you realize the truth about secrets and the power you command when you accept and divulge them. Because we are all created with tendencies to flourish and to fail, to blush and to bristle, and to overcome our fears.

That’s what links humans from Australia to Zimbabwe and what makes Delaney’s discourse, like his characters and the history of Ireland, such a delightful treasure to be told from generation to generation.
