To See the Elephant is an inspiring historical novel about Irish emigrant, John Delany, who built a log cabin and hacked a farm from the forest on the Northern Illinois frontier. He and his spunky Irish wife, Bridget, farmed the land and brought nine children into the world. In 1848, when gold was discovered in California, Delany was stricken by gold fever. He dreamed of California's riches for three years before Bridget gave in and agreed that he should seek his fortune. He prospected for gold for four years and participated in or was witness to some of California's most historic events. He returned home poorer than when he left but richer for the experience. This fictional story is based on the true life adventures of John Delany.

The Road to Bantry is a heart-warming story of a family who struggled for three years to stay alive during Ireland's Great Famine. In each of the years of 1845-1852, blight destroyed virtually all of Ireland's potato crop. The destruction, coupled with the British government's indifference, resulted in the death on one million Irish men, women, and children and forced the emigration of two million to nations around the world. The tragedy occurred even though Ireland grew more than enough food to feed its starving populace. In desperation Tim and Cate Shea fled with their children to America in 1848. By using their wits and guile they made their way halfway across the continent to join Tim's brothers in their log cabin farms north of Chicago. When gold was discovered in California, Tim hiked across the plains and mountains to California while Cate raised the children and ran the farm. Tim returned weighted down with the gold he'd mined. This fictional story is based on the true life adventures of my Great Great Grand Parents, Timothy and Catherine Shea.
