About the book

Sarah Walsh was born in the land of storytellers in 1919, in Ahanagran, in the west of Ireland. She has made her life out of the stories that she told to her children, stories of her early years in Ireland, her migration to the United States when she was sixteen, her life in Chicago as she struggled to become American, and her marriage during WWII to Harry White, the son of Russian Jewish immigrants, a graduate of Harvard, and an officer in the United States Army. Sara's memories, as recaptured in this unusual book by her son, Richard White, are personal recollections that paint a fascinating tale of one woman and her family in a story that expresses the dignity and excitement of ordinary lives. -- Publisher description
