Description

Discover the inspiring journey of Henry Kearney, from orphan to pioneer, in 'Eyes That Do Not See' - a tale of human resilience both uplifting and captivating.

Henry Kearney is orphaned at age 11 after barely surviving Ireland's famine in this historical novel inspired by the author's real-life great-grandfather. No matter the hardships, Henry refuses to let life defeat him as he continues to move forward with tenacity and grit, never giving up his dream of a better life.

From workhouses to steeplechase thrills, Henry survives famine ships and Civil War battlefields with unwavering determination in this absorbing tale that unfolds through the eyes of his descendants through a found journal.

Eventually, love finds him amidst the chaos, proving its strength in the darkest times. Finally, he settles on the drought-ravaged treeless plains of 1880s Nebraska, where the back-breaking work of homesteading and building a sod house tests his mettle in a story that portrays the challenges faced by immigrants and the spirit of a nation.

For Irish heritage lovers, Civil War enthusiasts, and frontier seekers, 'Eyes That Do Not See' is a must-read. The historical authenticity weaves a breathtaking narrative from start to finish and Henry’s journey will linger in your heart and mind for years to come.

Discover the inspiring journey of Henry Kearney, from orphan to pioneer, in 'Eyes That Do Not See' - a tale of human resilience both uplifting and captivating.
