The seven stories include ones about Bishop Charles Inglis, the first Bishop of British America and a native of County Donegal, Reverend William Sommerville from County Down who established a Covenanter's Church in Nova Scotia, and Corporal Joseph Clarke of County Monaghan who served with the 36th Ulster Division in World War I and after immigration to Toronto was later President of the Old Comrades Association.
