In February of 1970 Thomas Lynch aged twenty-one bought a one-way ticket to Ireland. He landed in the townland of Moveen at the edge of the ocean in West Clare outside the thatched cottage that his great-grandfather had left late in the nineteenth century with a one-way ticket to America. Tommy and Nora Lynch Thomas Lynch's elderly unmarried distant cousins welcomed the young American 'home'. In the words of the author 'it changed my life'. Booking Passage is part travelogue part cultural study part memoir and elegy part guidebook for what Lynch calls 'fellow pilgrims' working their way through their own and the larger histories. It is a magnificent hymn of praise to Ireland.
