The Burtons of Dunroe by Margaret W. Brew is a novel about a family living in the small Irish village of Dunroe. The story revolves around the Burton family, who have lived in the village for generations and are well-respected members of the community. The family consists of Michael Burton, his wife Bridget, and their three children, Patrick, Nora, and Sean.The novel begins with the death of Michael, leaving Bridget to manage the family farm and raise their children on her own. The story follows the family as they navigate the challenges of daily life in rural Ireland, including financial struggles, family conflicts, and the changing social and economic landscape of the country.As the children grow up, they each face their own unique challenges. Patrick, the eldest son, struggles to find his place in the world and rebels against his mother's traditional values. Nora, the middle child, dreams of leaving Dunroe and pursuing a career as a nurse, but faces opposition from her mother who believes that a woman's place is in the home. Sean, the youngest son, is the apple of his mother's eye, but his sheltered upbringing leaves him unprepared for the harsh realities of the outside world.Throughout the novel, the Burtons must come to terms with the changing world around them and find a way to preserve their traditions and values while also adapting to the modern world. The Burtons of Dunroe is a heartwarming and poignant story about family, community, and the enduring spirit of the Irish people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
