It's the end of August, 1851. 'On the High Seas' is a fast moving and exciting story showcasing resiliency, faith, mutual support and triumph over life threatening events. After being forced from their farms, their homes and their beloved Ireland by draconian laws imposed by the English Crown, religious persecution and failure of their potato crops, these fictitious Irish families, the O'Donnell's and Brian O'Boyle (introduced in 'Take the High Road'), face one challenge after another, during the two month voyage from Derry in Ireland to Baltimore in the United States. A spy of the Crown threatens to make a bad trip even worse.
They are crowded into the filthy, disease ridden steerage of a three masted sailing ship with more than one hundred other emigrant families. They face one challenge after another during the voyage and demonstrate their resiliency, deep faith and willingness to make a new start in America.
Their heroic responses, against all odds, in the face of disease, storms at sea and near starvation set examples for all of us. Guardian angels watch over them and offer support and guidance.
