Riassunto:
Between 1788 and 1886, approximately 164,000 convicts - 80% men, and 20% women, were transported to the Penal
Colonies in Australia, from England and Ireland. Fewer than 5% of them made it home.
This book is my tribute to the strength and forbearance of the Irish race, as told through the lives of two families so
terribly affected by the Penal Laws. The Laws put into motion the downhill slide into the Famine, or the more historically accurate term, the Great Hunger. Everything the Irish might have used to be able to fight the Famine had been taken from them.
