A young scholar seeks in County Tipperary, Ireland the truth about
his immigrant ancestor who was an artist of ships' figureheads but
also an alleged forger. He was caught and banished from his family
in Maine, after which he virtually disappeared. A portrait of human
heartache is created by the scholar from fragments gathered of an
early life in Ireland and of a defiant and creative exile in
America. During his stay the scholar is encouraged by an Irish
historian to visit Connemara in the west, where he learns of the
tragic love story of a woman descended from a legendary pirate
queen, and meets the dramatic heroine in person.
