For some, the road to freedom is an easy single step from the swaddling clothes of privilege and influence to the broad avenues of a life of ease and abundance they call their judicious choice. Born with a silver spoon in the mouth, they grow up attending Ivory League Colleges, enter prestigious professions in firms and institutions that are only accessible to the cream of the crop. For the majority though, freedom is a long, long road of thousands of arduous miles, traveled over decades of painstaking, slow climbing from the bowels of misery to a modicum of survival from one low wage to another not of their own choosing. The O'Pierceys' journey proceeded from political and religious persecution in the Ireland of the sixteenth century to religious martyrdom in southern France, to socio-political and religious entrapment in Haiti, and on to the extraordinary enjoyment of liberty in "the land of the free and the home of the brave." Their story, captured by a dying representative of their eight generation of Caribbean migration, is told in this book with rare pathos and deliberate forward thrust through a history they helped forge by dint of extraordinary acts of courage and sacrifices. As you turn the pages, you will touch their pain, relive their struggles, and mount with them on wings of eagle to the summits of joy and triumph only to discover that their saga is not unique, but strangely common to all men of good will-the ever new and ever old story of mankind's pilgrimage out of the night of debilitation to the realms of light and freedom all men were created for by a loving, guiding, prevenient Heavenly Father whose greatest pleasure consists in insuring the creature's ultimate fulfillment in a future of hope and blessing.
