I don't want to rate it because I didn't pay much attention to the description before downloading it. It's possibly a delightful read if you know the song or have an interest in it. I thought it was going to be McCourt storytime. Nope. Not interested.

I love "Danny Boy" so naturally, I was interested in picking this one up. While the book itself was informative and well-meaning, the writing was a bit dull. After a little bit, it was almost difficult to remain fascinated with the story and I honestly grew bored. It was an okay book overall.

I picked this book up as part of some research I’m doing. It was very informative, but I could definitely sense the authors bias in favor of Ireland and more specifically Irish Catholics. Not a bad thing, but I just have to take it all with a grain of salt because of that.

Went from 'meh' to 'why am I reading this?' with the turn of a page.

3 stars for the book which, though informative, wastes a lot of pages on trivial stuff.
+1 because it's about "Danny Boy".
