This translation originally published: Boston, Mass.: Houghton Mifflin, 2009.
It is 1913 and 12-year-old Patrick Condon wants to escape his unexciting life in Ireland. So he hatches a plan. Not wanting to wait until he is old enough to join the army, Patrick lies and says he is 17-years-old and that his name is John Condon. Assuming the identity of his older brother, Patrick enlists.
Translated from the Dutch.
