Description
Tom Phelan's We Were Rich and We Didn't Know It is a poignant and deeply personal memoir of growing up in rural Ireland in the 1940s. Born and raised in County Laois, Tom recounts his formative years working with his father on a farm that was often challenging and back-breaking. The memoir speaks to the strength of the human spirit in the face of adversity, as Tom shares his experiences of life in an isolated community where the Church exerted significant control. With a unique and powerful voice, Tom Phelan brings to life a bygone era, one that is both heart-wrenching and heartwarming.
