Take the High Road

Take the High Road, an Irish Odyssey, showcases fictitious characters, the O’Donnell family, Liam, Sarah, Paddy, Bridgid and Brian O’Boyle, in real history.  They come alive on the pages as they struggle against famine, disease, cold weather and draconian laws forced on them by the British Crown.  Despite trials and setbacks, their faith, guidance from their guardian angels and deeply rooted Irish resiliency gives them courage and wisdom to carry on.  The way they live, day to day, in facing and solving their problems sets an example for all people everywhere.  The setting is in County Donegal, Ireland during the unusually cold month of August, 1851.
