About the Book (Excerpts & Info)
And so begins the adventure. The leprechaun is called O'Shaughnessey because that's the name the little fellow's chosen for himself and because his faerie name is virtually unpronouncable by humans. Bobby flies in the leprechaun's magical tricorn hat into the deep woods to meet the crusty, antisocial O'Sullivan with his hoard of gold, to the Cave where the Ban-Shees dwell, and to the Mountain of Shadows, where is kept the dreaded Coach-a-Bower, the Deathcoach. Author Jeremy McGuire weaves the invisible realms seamlessly with Bobby's real world where he experiences the divorce of his parents, and the illness of his little sister, each world influencing and being influenced by the other.
Is O'Shaughnessey real or an imaginary friend?
Yes.
Deftly constructed at 140 pages, O'Shaughnessey: A Boy and His Leprechaun is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the Children's Literature - General category.

About the Author
Primarily a playwright (From All Things Evil/Sister), this is Jeremy McGuire's first work of narrative fiction. He has also been an actor, director and teacher, but his first and most enduring loves are writing and drawing. He has a particular fondness for Nineteenth Century literature and art, which influences the narrative style and the pen and ink drawings in O'Shaughnessey.
He lives in an 1883 Victorian house on the south side of Chicago with his wife, Kathleen, who is also an artist, and two cats, who are not.

The book Blacks, Indians & Women in America's War for Independence addresses Black's and Women's history during the Revolutionary War. Returning for a visit to America in 1824, Marquis de Lafayette was struck by the increase in racial prejudice in the United States. He recalled when Black and White Revolutionary War soldiers ate together, fraternized, marched, died side-by-side and were then rolled naked together into mass graves. He was upset by the fact that in 1824, Whites were rarely seen with Blacks unless the Blacks were slaves. Regarding women's participation on our Revolutionary War battlefields, women, just as they are doing today in Iraq and Afghanistan, died beside or in support of male soldiers in the Re...
