Fortunate Son: A Novel of the Greatest Trial in Irish History by David Marlett
Starts with dedication pages and thanks.
Have been reading a few indenture books lately and this one lines right up with the things I've learned. There are so many more things the characters sees and tells you about.
Love the JFK connection, fun learning about it along the way.
Court trials and how they worked back then was amazingly fast.
James birthright was taken from him by an uncle til he returns to Ireland to claim it himself and he has proof.
Love hearing about the arrival to US and things he does over the years to pay back his charges.
Some along the journey did not fare as well. Author made this a fun history read with drama included.
Received this review copy from The Story Plant and this is my honest opinion.
