Discover Cahey's story
His love of Ireland had always been his saving grace-but now has become his greatest hindrance. So much has been taken from Cahey: his family, farm, education, and the love of his life. Still, there's one thing they can't take away: his remarkable ability to understand horses.
Follow his journey
Leaving behind his friends and a thriving business in Galway, Cahey embarks on a journey to New York and struggles to find his way. He quickly discovers he is not alone. He bands with other Irish, Scottish, and French immigrants to build a life away from everything he once loved.
Can he overcome his obstacles?
Being Irish creates many problems, even in New York. Finding out how severe those problems are could change his life forever. His fear is-can his survival skills and love of horses be enough to become the most sought-after horse trainer at the Vanderbilt American Horse Exchange in 1901?
