Booking Passage: We Irish and Americans

In thirty-five years and dozens of return trips to Ireland, Thomas Lynch has found a template for the larger world inside the small one, the planet in the local parish. Part memoir, part cultural study, Booking Passage is a brilliant, often comedic guidebook for those fellow travelers, fellow pilgrims making their way through the complexities of their own lives and times.
