Description: Ferguson describes his attempt at walking the entire Ulster Way, a 560-mile path that circles Northern Ireland. Along the way, this grandson of a Belfast orphan uncovers his own hidden family history. There are clues about a lost inheritance, a mysterious photograph, and rumours of a vast estate, but the truth when it comes is both surprising and funny.
