Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Lost Tribes Nathan P. Dann does not come into this story. He died before any of the things which I have to record happened. And he died, as he had lived, in New York, while the scene in of the story is a small village in County Galway. it is, however, necessary to write down a few words about Nathan P. Dann. He was birth and descent Irishman. Very early in life, at about the age of nineteen, he left Ireland and went to America. There he prospered and became very rich. This is an important fact. If Nathan P. Dann had not left a large fortune, his widow could not have done or attempted the things she did. Like most Irishmen, who live anywhere in the world except Ireland, Nathan P. Dann was patriotic. He did not, indeed, return to Ireland, or show, at any time of his life, the smallest desire to live there. The patriotism of an "Exile from Erin" never takes that form. Generally, though not in the case of Nathan P. Dann, it expresses itself in a series of self-denying efforts to help other people out in Ireland. The Irish Exile pay his friends´ fares from Queenstown to New York. He only pays his own fare from New York to Queenstown when he takes a return ticket, and he always uses the second half of it. Dann did not even take an Irish holiday at any time during his life. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
