Download or read book Amazing Grace written by Hugo N Gerstl and published by Panga Publishing Group. This book was released on 2019-01-05 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A WOMAN THAT HATH IMPUDENTLY PASSED THE PART OF WOMANHOOD AND BEEN A GREAT SPOILER AND CHIEF COMMANDER AND DIRECTOR OF THIEVES AND MURDERERS AT SEA ... SHE HATH BEEN THE MOTHER OF ALL REBELLIONS FOR FORTY YEARS ... GRACE O'MALLEY, the "Pirate Queen of Connaught," was thus vilified by those English authorities who tried to bring stubborn, recalcitrant Ireland to its knees in the Sixteenth Century. Twice married, twice widowed, a passionate lover, gambler, pirate, sea captain, politician, mother of heroes, and, above all, a symbol of the indomitable human spirit and Irish independence. She was a force to be reckoned with by anyone - man, woman, even the sovereign of England, who tried to cross her path. AMAZING GRACE swaggered boldly across the world stage for more than seventy years. These were turbulent times of Henry VIII and "Bloody Mary" Tudor, and Queen Elizabeth - the age if discovery when the remnants of the Middle Ages were dying - except in the provinces of Ireland - and the Renaissance was in full flower - the days of the "discovery" of America by Spaniards, the exploration of Africa and India by Portugal, the launching of the Invincible Armada, and the great schism of two contending forces of western Christianity. Armed with courage and daring to match that of any man, AMAZING GRACE lived a life "larger than legend." More sinner than saint, she is remembered throughout westernIreland more than four hundred years after her death, celebrated in story and song. In a time when women were very much "second class citizens," GRACE O'MALLEY did not need a women's rights organization - she was her own force, and if you tried to cross her, you'd best beware. Sir Henry Sidney, the English Lord Deputy of Ireland, said it best: "There came to me a most feminine sea captain called Grace O'Malley, with three galleys and 200 fighting men. She brought with her husband and she was, as well be sea as by land, well more than Mrs. Mate with him. This was a notorious woman in all the coasts of Ireland." Hugo N. Gerstl, nationally famous American trial lawyer, world traveler, whose books have been translated into Portuguese, Czech, Turkish, Hebrew, and German, and author of international bestsellers Scribe, Against All Odds, Assassin, and The Wrecking Crew, lives in Carmel, California with his wife Lorraine, a writer and teacher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reclusive Boston widow sends her alluring daughter, Aoife O’Malley, to the Santa Fe office of veteran art-crime detective Tom McNaul. The job: to recover a Monet water lilies painting that was stolen from their family twenty years ago in a murder/burglary in Northern Ireland. Tom accepts the challenge but soon finds himself pursued by lethal elements of Boston’s Irish mob. Outgunned and stymied by the murder of his only suspect, Tom joins forces with his older brother, Willie, and agent Kate Bacon, his former partner on the FBI Art Crime Team. When the three fly to Ireland, hoping to trace the painting from the original crime scene, they are swept into a world of violent political intrigue. Their whirlwind circuit of the Emerald Isle soon turns deadly as agents of unknown organizations pursue them. Tom fears that radical elements of both the IRA and Orange paramilitaries want the painting to finance terrorism—perhaps even to reignite the Troubles. As the dangers increase, he finds himself unable to trust anyone in his struggle to fulfill his quest and untangle his complex relationships with Aoife, Kate, and the pirate queen.

Book excerpt: Here is an extraordinary novel about real-life Irish chieftain Grace O Malley. From Morgan Llywelyn, bestselling author of Lion of Ireland and the Irish Century novels, comes the story of a magnificent, sixteenth-century heroine whose spirit and passion are the spirit and passion of Ireland itself. Grania (Gaelic for Grace) is no ordinary female. And she lives in extraordinary times. For even as Grania rises as her clan's unofficial head and breadwinner and learns to love a man, she enters a lifelong struggle against the English forces of Queen Elizabeth -- her nemesis and alter ego. Elizabeth intends to destroy Grania's piracy and shipping empire--and so subjugate Ireland once and for all. But Grania, aided by Tigernan, her faithful (and secretly adoring) lieutenant, has no choice but to fight back. The story of her life is the story of Ireland's fight for solidarity and survival--but it's also the story of Grania's growing ability to love and be strong at the same time. Morgan Llywelyn has written a rich, historically accurate, and passionate novel of divided Ireland -- and of one brave woman who is Ireland herself.
