A Letter Home traces the vast, human story of Irish emigration to North America through the intimate voices of those who lived it. This evocative collection brings
the experience of those who left Ireland’s shores to life through letters sent across the Atlantic between the early nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries.
These absorbing and deeply moving letters speak of longing and resilience, hardship and hope, of lives rebuilt in distant cities and on frontier farms, and of the enduring pull of home. They reveal emigration not as a simple journey of opportunity,
but as a complex experience of exile, ambition and loss.
A Letter Home is testament to the ties that distance could never break.
