Paddy Finn
Paddy Finn is an Irish adventure that pulses with the romance of the sea. Terence O'Finnahan, affectionately called Paddy, is a boy of great expectations and larger appetites for life. When he leaves behind the warm chaos of Castle Ballinahone and his lively family to join the Royal Navy as a midshipman, he carries with him the dreams of an uncle (Major McMahon) and the bond with his foster brother, Larry Harrigan, who awaits him aboard the frigate Liffy. The sea offers glory, but it also demands a price. This is a boy's transition into manhood, told with the kind of rough humor and heart that made 19th-century adventure novels the passion of countless young readers.
