A warm-hearted story of an Irish-American who goes back to Ireland to discover his roots.
Some people search for the truth of their lives in their families and in their past. Some go back to their roots in an effort to discover who the people were who helped shape their lives. Kevin O'Hara did just that. A Vietnam vet, Kevin was left with unanswered questions and a gaping hole in his heart. So he went home, home to Ireland. Not the place of his birth, but his mother's homeland. He went to try and sort out the sort of man he was and try to find a way back. Kevin's journey began as a mad lark: who in the world would convince themselves that they could circle the entire coastline of Ireland in a donkey cart. Along the way, Kevin meets some of the more colourful examples of Irish wit, humour, (and temper), and through adversity, sheer folly, and some joy, finds out just the sort of fellow he'd become.. And the man he could be. Told with humour and love, The Last Of The Donkey Pilgrims is a book for those who need to make the journey of the soul.. And those who wish they could.
