Prince Shemus Story From Me Mudder’s Irish Line
James Mulrennan, a hungry New York street boy, tells a grandmotherly Irish folk tale his mother claimed linked him to Prince Shemus. The tale travels from Bally to America, with a magical voyage home through a ship ridden by a prince and a red and white gerrul, ending with a royal reunion in Dublin Bay.
