Description
A truly remarkable account, Not Forgotten traces the growth of one family from a small Irish town to a wide network stretching across the world. In 1920's Ireland, a whirlwind romance ends in pain, heartbreak, and poverty for one young woman. This pain will echo down through generations of sons and daughters, brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers; leaving the family broken and scattered. This is the story of Kitty, a girl who suffered throughout her life and yet managed to grow into a strong, independent woman. It is also the story of the Irish diaspora; the lives, loves and losses of the thousands who left their homes and families behind to seek their fortune abroad. Most importantly, it is the story of a family.
