This historical fiction takes readers back to Northern Ireland of the early 1800s. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Brabham's novel unveils the shrouded story of the enigmatic John Burnside-from his last day in New Orleans to his homeland in Northern Ireland. It opens with the powerful, but ailing, entrepreneur and his ever-dependable valet, Jupiter Jones, as they step from their carriage at the train station in New Orleans. Almost everyone, especially the Irish immigrants, knew John personally or by reputation. Following the Civil War, he had pioneered the use of free labor in his sugar mills and plantations. His monumental success led the way, greatly influencing the restoration of the broken industry of the South. Being the largest grower, producer and exporter of sugar in the United States had earned him the title of \"The Prince of Sugar\". \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Through a flashback presentation, almost as soon as Jupiter bade him goodnight, John Burnside was floating and drifting on a dream-filled sea of green; homeward bound for the windswept moors of County Tyrone. As the readers are immersed into him and his family's lives, they will learn how education, work ethic and wise investing became his keys to success.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nora Brabham\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Xlibris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/15\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.39d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781441570086\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Xlibris","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44758861742195,"sku":"9781441570086","price":24.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_1450b3e5-957b-42cd-b2a9-8e08537ccb93.jpg?v=1775950612","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/tir-eoghain-9781441570086","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
