Description

GALWAY BAY is a poignant historical family saga set against the backdrop of Ireland's Famine. In a time of great hardship, young Honora Keeley and Michael Kelly build a life together, determined to ensure their children will thrive.

As the blight destroys their crops and the government turns a natural disaster into The Great Starvation, Honora and Michael make the difficult decision to emigrate to America in search of a better future. Along with two million other Irish refugees, they face danger and hardship as they strive to build new lives.

This powerful story spans six generations, filled with joy, sadness, and heroism, and sheds light on the ancestors of today's forty-four million Irish Americans. A universal tale that will stay with you long after finishing the book.
