Requests:  0 Summary:  "Tom Phelan, who was born and raised in County Laois in the Irish midlands, spent his formative years working with his wise and demanding father as he sought to wrest a livelihood from a farm that was often wet, muddy, and back-breaking. It was a time before rural electrification, the telephone, and indoor plumbing; a time when the main modes of travel were bicycle and animal cart; a time when small farmers struggled to survive and turkey eggs were hatched in the kitchen cupboard; a time when the Church exerted enormous control over Ireland. We Were Rich and We Didn't Know It recounts Tom's upbringing in an isolated, rural community from the day he was delivered by the local midwife. With tears and laughter, it speaks to the strength of the human spirit in the face of life's adversities."--Amazon.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 941.87082 Phelan Ph   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Biography B Phelan Ph 2019 Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 941.87082 Phelan Ph   Checked In Add Copy to MyList
