This is a slightly revised edition of Erin's Ring, which was originally published by Bezalel Books in 2014. It includes a new forward by the author. This YA historical fiction novel intertwines the fascinating story of some plucky early 19th-century Irish immigrants in a small New Hampshire town with that of a pair of contemporary girls who set out to learn all about them.
