Summary:	"It takes one extraordinary mind to know another, and Maureen Murphy's story of Asenath Nicholson proves it. Had Murphy not unearthed and revealed the tale of Nicholson's tireless courage and intelligent kindness toward the Irish during the Great Famine, we would not know of a remarkable woman or of a time, place and people indispensable to history. Meticulously researched, beautifully written, Compassionate Stranger is a gift to scholarship, literature, Ireland, and to readers everywhere who seek to understand both the hardship and nobility of the poor."--Roger Rosenblatt, essayist for Time magazine and PBS NewsHour.  Read more...
