Five years before the opening of A Woman of Substance, thirteen-year-old Shane “Blackie” O’Neill is orphaned in County Kerry and leaves Ireland for Leeds. Living with his uncle and working as a navvy, he learns a trade among the expanding city’s construction projects and begins to imagine a future beyond poverty and dependence.
Blackie’s discipline and ambition gradually earn him opportunity, but his defining encounter occurs on the Yorkshire moors when he meets the young kitchen maid Emma Harte. Published in the United States as A Man of Honor, the novel recasts the saga’s beginnings through the friendship of two outsiders determined to rise by their own efforts.
