Adventure, romance and intrigue fuel a miniseries about mid-19th-century Irish immigrants, seeking fame and fortune in America. Location filming in the auld sod enriches the story, which centers on a dirt-poor tenant farmer who sows seeds of rebellion against British rule, while falling for a daughter of landed gentry and haughty firebrand in her own right. The richly textured script was written by 'Upstairs, Downstairs' contributor Rosemary Anne Sisson.
