Finn MacLir Ron Duffy

Sure of himself, sure of his place in the world, an independent, fearlessly free-thinking man, Finn MacLir shows what he is made of in a daring, adventurous life: fishing the stormy north Atlantic from harbours in Ireland, Iceland, Newfoundland; building clipper-ships in Boston; sailing the perilous high seas to Australia, to China, to Japan. When his father and brother are murdered in Ireland during Fenian outrages in 1880, Finn accepts the challenge of a new life in the unquiet land and turbulent times of late nineteenth century Ireland.
