Turas go Meiriceá

As Cló / Out of Print

Fómhar na bliana 1847 a bhí ann. Ní raibh Tomás Mac Lannchaidh ach deich mbliana d’aois nuair a tháinig an dubh ar na prátaí. Dá óige é ba rómhaith a thuig sé an scéal.

Ní raibh ag a athair ach cúpla acra talún agus bhí an teaghlach, agus cuid mhaith se na comharsana, beo ar na prátaí. Thuig Tomás go dtiocafadh athrú ar a shaol, ach ní raibh súil aige le heachtra mhór ar an long go Meiriceá.

This is the first of a two book series and it tells the tale of 10 years old Tomás Mac Lannchaidh and how at the age of 10 the potato famine of 1847 had hit. This story takes us on their trip as they leave Ireland to head to America in order to survive. Tomás knows that it is a big change to his life and that he’ll never forget it.
