The Potato Famine & The Coming of the Irish to America
Terence O'Leary/ Author & Speaker
Mr. O'Leary is scheduling in-person presentations on The Potato Famine and the Coming of the Irish to America during the fall of 2022 and the spring of 2023. The speaker's presentation is based on six years of research for his 3 Irish Crossings novels. Through the years, Mr. O'Leary has given numerous lectures about The Great Hunger at Irish Festivals including Dublin, Dayton, Pittsburgh and Detroit. He has also lectured at numerous libraries, universities and genealogy clubs about the Potato Famine.
The Great Hunger not only affected the destiny of Ireland but also America. It is a story that is so important to the heritage of over 34 million Irish-Americans. As an Irish storyteller, the author's quest is to keep the famine story alive.
Mr. O'Leary usually talks for 45 minutes with time after the lecture for questions and answers. The author/speaker asks for an honorarium to help defray his expenses for an in-person presentation. The author can also bring copies of his Irish Crossings Trilogy for those who would like to purchase autographed copies of his books.
