Description
In this stunning work chronicling the author's exploration of his own past-and the lives of many hundreds of thousands of nameless immigrants who struggled alongside his own ancestors-Peter Quinn paints a brilliant new portrait of the Irish-American men and women whose evolving culture and values continue to play such a central role in all of our identities as Americans.
In Quinn's hands, the Irish stereotype of "Paddy" gives way to an image of "Jimmy"-an archetypal Irish-American.
From Irish immigration to modern politics, Quinn vibrantly weaves together the story of a remarkable people and their immeasurable contribution to American history and culture.
