The Castles Of Anne Lynch
Ann Lynch, as a young child, learns how to survive on the streets of famine-torn Ireland following the Great Hunger Time of the late 1840s. Her homelessness ends but is followed by seven years enduring the heartlessness and unjust treatment within the bleak, cold, gray walls of the North Dublin Workhouse.
At age fourteen, Ann, now orphaned, sets sail for America in search of a better life, hoping to fulfill her dreams of finding security and a real home.
Will the strengths she’s developed in the Old World help her survive in this new, unknown land?
And if they do, is the fulfillment of those dreams what she really wants?
Reluctant Greatness
If there had not been a Martha Washington, you would never have heard of George.
Less than five feet tall, the rich Martha Dandridge Custis falls in love with the tall, charismatic, famer, and changes history.
All she wants is a loving home for her two children, a warm fire, a fine kitchen in which to bake her cakes and a reliable rocking chair to knit in.
But the man wants more.
The ambition that drives George Washington to unheard-of heights conflicts with her ambition to provide a peaceful hearth and home. But selflessly, she puts her dreams aside and through the hells of a war, the chaos of politics, and the birthing pains of a new nation, Martha stands by her husband, supporting him in every way possible, and nary a soul hears a single complaint.
“I am determined to be cheerful and happy in whatever situation I may find myself. For I have learned that the greater part of our misery or unhappiness is determined not by our circumstance but by our disposition.”
Within the pages of this novel is the story of how this woman lived what she believed every day of her life.
