Publisher's summary

He gave his word, refused to break a vow, and lost his one chance at true love. Now they've come for his land. Hap Wilkes is a man facing a painful past, an increasingly uncertain future, and now fights with everything left in a broken and failing body, to keep the one thing still left to him - his pride.

The Irish Cowboy is a story of loss, secrets, redemption, and the always present human yearning for love and forgiveness, and marks the most personal novel to date from best-selling author D.W. Ulsterman.

Great story!

I loved the book but there was some stumbling by the readers. Should have been pieced out.

Real Narrative

The author depicts the real narrative of what is unfolding currently is US western lands. The main character is courageous to us and others but weak in his own eyes because he measures his life by how he affects those close to him.

For love of the land and FREEDOM

I laughed, I cried. and cheered. This was a book for people who know the feeling of loving the land, and the Freedom we should be able to enjoy in this great country. it is about friendship. honor loyalty and forgiveness. it is also about greed, justice and right and wrong. as well as the joy and heartache that life brings .

great story...narrator?

really enjoyed the story and the characters. I felt the struggle of people and regret, of love and loss.
Hap reminded me of people I know hard working, honest and a little crotchety.
It was not as long as other audio books, I appreciated that. I had a little trouble with the narrator, had an accent that didnt match Montana and pronunciation of Helena was off, kind of like fingernails on a chalk board. But the story was good enough to over look it🤷‍♀️

I tried to give the narrator a chance

I don’t know if this was a low budget book or what, but even the mistakes made while narrating were left in the final cut. Words were pronounced incorrectly and the voices used for characters were … odd. I only stuck with it because my husband read the book on his kindle and thought I would enjoy this story. I feel for the author. His story is good and the narrator made it so dang hard to listen until the end.

Thoughtful tale of determination, persistence and strength

The story of just one man’s strength and tenacity to fight against a behemoth federal agency whose purpose it was to “steal” land from anyone who might get in their way.

Best book I’ve listened to in a long time

Although a tearjerker, this book accurately portrays the nefarious workings of the BLM, as they work to diminish wild horse herds thoughout America to make room for cattle, oil, mineral giants etc. A good read.

Refreshing storyline

The story line was good and refreshing. well written although almost didn't listen to it. the narration wasn't intriguing at all
almost half to listen to. Bland. I ended up continuing in to a new and fresh storyline.
