| Summary Note |
"This breathtaking epic opens on the west coast of Ireland, 1892. Joseph Donelly, a poor tenant farmer, is determined to bring justice to an oppressive landlord. Instead, he finds himself accompanying the landlord's daughter, Shannon, to America in a quest for land. Arriving in Boston, Joseph finds a place for them to live while proving a natural at bare-fisted boxing. But his triumph is short-lived as he and Shannon are thrown out in the bitter cold. Joseph sets off for work in the railroad, until a passing wagon train reminds him of his original goal to posses his own land"--Container. |
