'She died on Christmas Eve of a broken heart.'This book of historical fiction begins with Maggie, a young Irish girl, who moves to England with her family. It tells of the joys and tragedies in her life as she grows to womanhood. Her son George becomes an orphan and a lonely 'home child' who endures many challenges and some happiness in his life journey.This intriguing, epic tale spans over one hundred years from 1874. It relates the history of Ireland, England and Canada in turbulent times, including the Irish troubles, harsh Victorian times, home children, homesteading, deaths, the Spanish flu, the dirty thirties and two World Wars. Was George’s life shaped by nature or nurture? How did it affect future generations?
