If ever a voice has captured the colors, the rhythms, the rich, bittersweet emotion of a time gone by, it is Alice Taylor's. Her tales of childhood in rural Ireland transcend their landscape, which explains why, on its initial publication in 1989, Taylor's first memoir, To School Through the Fields, became the biggest bestseller in Ireland's history.

To School Through the Fields

TAYLOR, Alice

Biographies & Memoirs

<p>One May morning in 1889, the inky, already-bustling offices of the Chicago Tribune are electrified by the story of the year: the disappearance of prominent Irish doctor P. H. Cronin - and the appearance of a ghoulish, bloody trunk that may have held his corpse.<br>From the haunting true story of Dr. Cronin's murder, Mary Maher has woven a fascinating, grittily authentic mystery. Through the eyes of Tom Martin, a young, inexperienced reporter, she enters old Irish Chicago, its air heavy with ethnic friction. As Tom struggles with his own identity as an Irish-American, his work on the Cronin case with old hand Dick Huntley compels him to penetrate the Irish underworld, until he finds himself within fearsome range of the Clan na Gael, a secret society with wide - and deadly - influence.<br>Weaving a clever and original whodunit with social drama and romance, Mary Maher - herself a native of Chicago now living in Ireland - has crafted a captivating narrative, and a singular debut.</p>
