From the Publisher
By the best-selling author of Schindler's List, the moving story of a man who moves his family from the harsh poverty of British-controlled Ireland at the end of the last century, hoping to find new freedom in Australia. Instead, he discovers a different but equally stifling social order -- and a moral challenge that will force him to transcend the barriers of race and class.
