Synopsis "Learn More Than You Tell: Related Short Stories"
These stories involve an Irishman or woman grappling with challenges centuries old, with allies and foes from foreign countries, from their own families, and from within themselves. Beleaguered hope, weary courage and a wan perseverance in the end remain. These stories record activities of Irish Republican Army members in the War for Irish Independence and the ensuing Civil War; the rehabilitation of disfigured Irish veterans from WWI; the family that rallied around their unmarried pregnant daughter rather then send her to the Magdalene Laundries; the ship-line owner who allowed infectious passengers to sail in steerage; the immigrant who falls for the passenger on her way to an American convent; the Irish policeman who confronts a Ku Klux Klan klavern in Yonkers; the New York City Irish fire chief whose men are primarily interested in exploiting Prohibition; the seminary dean caught abusing his students; the Irish priest who becomes the confidant of an Orthodox Jewish family in New York; the Tinkers who break up an international drug operation; the Belfast girl who joins her brothers in an attack on her rapist before joining one brother a decade later in becoming anonymous members of his health care team; the Irish who converted to Puritanism under the English Tudors.
