Bag om The McMillan Saga 1862
The McMillan Saga 1862 is the story of a rural Irish farm family in Northern Ireland and begins in the year 1862 while a civil war is raging in America. The McMillan family awaits their farm being confiscated by the English during the long Northern Ireland/England conflict. Due to circumstances beyond their control, the two young men in the McMillan family become involved in a sinister plan by the Irish Fenians (a terrorist nationalist organization) and the two are targeted by the English Army as terrorists. Under vague and mysterious circumstances, the McMillan family and other threatened Irish families escape to New York City in America. Due to a mysteriously complex Fenian plan, the two McMillan boys find themselves enlisted in the Union Army under extremely dangerous circumstances. As part of the Fenian plan, their father, mother and two sisters are spirited away by train and covered wagon to whereabouts unknown out west. The story follows the two young men throughout their ordeal of not only being army deserters wanted by the Union Army, but also being pursued by the Fenians. In addition to these threats they had the wilderness of the west in America and Indians to contend with. Although a fiction novel, the backdrop of this story is based upon historical events that were present and occurring during the 1860's in Northern Ireland and America.
