Why read it?
1 author picked Saint Patrick's Battalion as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book is accessible to young adults as well as mature readers and is compelling because of the fast-paced, visual action scenes.
From Michael's list on the Irish who fought for Mexico.
