"In 1848, 4,000 Irish girls--mostly orphans from overcrowded workhouses--are sent to Australia under the Earl Grey Scheme, intended to provide them with work and help 'civilize' the convict population. Among them is Kate Gilvarry, who leaves behind famine-ravaged Ireland hoping for a better life. But in Sydney, she faces hostility and heartbreak.

Through hardship, she discovers strength, resilience, and the promise of a new beginning. The Famine Orphans is a tribute to their courage and legacy"--Adapted from publisher's description.…mehr
