A touching tribute to a young man whose life was cut tragically short, this memoir offers a glimpse into the hardships and triumphs of the early 19th century. With vivid descriptions of daily life, Madden brings to light the struggles faced by individuals in an era marked by poverty and inequality. Despite the difficulties, however, the life of Peter Roe shines as a testament to the indomitable spirit of the human soul.
