Mary - that is great news on your book. CONGRATULATIONS! Loree Muldowney ----- Original Message ----- From: maryldunn@aol.com To: roscommon@rootsweb.com Sent: Saturday, March 29, 2008 5:06 AM Subject: [ROSCOMMON] RE The Ballykilcline story To anyone interested in the Ballykilcline story, My book about the Ballykilcline rent strike (1835-1848) and the fates and fortunes of the evicted strikers in the United States (up to 1870) will be published by the University of Massachusetts Press in July. Its title is, Ballykilcline Rising / From Famine Ireland to Immigrant America. It is listed now on Amazon but you can read a fuller description of it here: http://www.umass.edu/umpress/spr_08/dunn.htm Since some of you helped in various ways, I thought you might like to know that it finally is making it to bookshelves. The story draws on history, genealogy, and social sciences to produce the picture that it presents of the strikers’ lives on both sides of the Atlantic. It also draws on the knowledge of members of the Ballykilcline Society, and other research communities, who have generously shared what they know so we all can learn more. Many thanks to all who contribute to this list. And, of course, the search for the rest of the story continues.
