An Irish adventurer tells his own life story and lies all the way through it: duels, desertion, cheating at cards, a rich widow he bullies into marrying him. He spends her fortune, his small son dies, and he ends in a debtors' prison.
Since the days of Adam, there has been hardly a mischief done in this world but a woman has been at the bottom of it.
The blurb, the gist, the why of the day and the work itself are in the app. The first button needs it on this device; the second gets it there.
