We meet William Smith O'Brien, leader of an uprising at the height of the Irish famine, who rose from solitary confinement in Australia to become the Mandela of his age; Thomas Francis Meagher, whose escape from Australian captivity led to a glittering American career as an orator, a Union general, and governor of Montana; and John Mitchel, who became a Confederate newspaper reporter, gave two of his sons to the Southern cause, was imprisoned with Jefferson Davis -- and returned to Ireland to become mayor of Tipperary.
Through many such lives, both famous and obscure, readers are immersed in the Irish experience and the astonishing history of the Irish diaspora, vividly portrayed in this extraordinary tale of the tragedies and triumphs of the Irish, who came to exert such enormous influence in the English-speaking world.
