Description

by Mary Lou Widmer (Author)

Margaret Haughery, Irish immigrant to New Orleans, lost everyone she ever loved, but she dedicated her whole life to the service of others. A woman who could not read or write, she possessed extraordinary business acumen, and by the time of her death, including what she had bequeathed in her will, she had donated everything she earned -- an estimated half-million dollars -- to the orphans and the poor.

This docunovel has dialogue added to enliven the text.

Back Jacket

Margaret Haughery lost everyone she ever loved, but dedicated her life to the service of others. Unable either to read or write, this Irish immigrant nevertheless possessed an extraordinary business acumen that was only surpassed by her generosity. An orphan herself, Margaret Haughery donated everything she earned-- an estimated half-million dollars-- to the orphans and the poor.

In nineteenth-century New Orleans, Margaret Haughery proved that one person can make a difference, that with faith, anything is possible. Strengthened by her Roman Catholic faith, she overcame tremendous personal tragedy to live an extremely humble, generous, and rewarding life of service to others.
