    Hi -
    Delighted to see you found our book video! The book is available through the Lens Pen Web site:
    www.beautifulozarks.com or amazon.com or in bookstores. We've just published a companion volume that reprints Hogan's two memoirs ("On the Mission in Missouri & Fifty Years Ago: A Memoir") so anyone interested in Missouri history, Irish-American history, and an Irish childhood in the 1830s and 1840s can read his accounts in Hogan's own words. We've provided much additional biographical and historical background as well....

    Thanks for re-posting the video. Come check us out at beautifulozarks.com!
