In Ireland, Scotland and England of 1567, the Tudors rule. Amidst the conflict between Queen Elizabeth of England and her cousin, Mary Queen of Scots, Tam O'Hare - Irish Lord, explorer and swashbuckling adventurer - sets out on the greatest journey of his life to find a little girl stolen by the mysterious Faerie Folk - the 'Good People' of Irish myth and lore.The Rollicking Adventures of Tam O'Hareis an anthropomorphized tale set against a backdrop of historical characters of England, Scotland and Ireland of the 1500s. The story focuses on the exploits of Tam O'Hare, a well-reputed adventurer (ala: Sir Francis Drake) who is called upon to find and rescue a young girl who's been stolen by the enchanted, mysterious Fae of Irish myth. These are not your typical storybook fairies, but the much darker elemental beings of Celtic lore. Throughout the story, Tam teaches his young squirrel squire, Horatio MacNutt, the true nature of honor and nobility of the heart.
