Publisher's Synopsis
What happens when the female descendant of a Black Loyalist slave and the male descendant of an Irish emigrant come together in a maritime nation noted for its racial and religious intolerance? Can ebony and ivory mix? Can a young romance born from a common love of music possibly survive? Sing To Me David follows the young life of Patience Rumney and David McIvarr as they grow up during alternating periods of war, prosperity and adversity in the early 1900s; each searching for an identity and a purpose in life by exploring their early origins. The story flashes back more than a century to the Rumney exodus from the United States after the American Revolution and the McIvarr flight from Ireland during the Great Famine. Sing To Me David will bring joy to your heart and tears to your eyes as Patience and David struggle with their romantic relationship.
