Book Preview:
#1 Bridget Murphy was one of the millions of Irish people who were forced to flee their homes during the Great Irish Potato Famine. She was driven to leave home and family behind and travel to a new land.
#2 The Irish potato fields had rotted into sickening wastelands, and the mass emigration that started in 1846 had by 1847 reached a full house-on-fire, run-for-your-life stampede. Men and women who’d never ventured beyond the next town flooded into Liverpool, desperate for a ship to anywhere.
#3 Women like Bridget were escaping Ireland in search of a better life, and America seemed like the perfect place to do it.
#4 A generation of Bridgets chose to take a chance on a new dawn rather than wait for marriage in an ancient land run by church and queen. Many left home, wings wide, with a sense of adventure and optimism.
