Settling in a city founded by the Puritans, the Irish of Boston evolved into one of America's most distinctive ethnic communities - and eventually came to dominate local politics. In an authoritative narrative, rich with anecdote, Thomas H. O'Connor chronicles the growth of Irish political power in Boston, from the colourful ward bosses of the late nineteenth century and the celebrated political machine of mayor James Michael Curley to the resurgent neighbourhood populists of today.

To celebrate the archdiocese of Boston’s bicentennial, this informative volume chronicles a wide range of Boston history with a particular concentration on religion. Each chapter examines a different angle of the Church’s past by focusing on influential figures, including Bishop Cheverus, John F. Kennedy, and Elizabeth Seton.Contributors—such as Libby MacDonald Bischof, François Gauthier, Carol Hurd Green, and Rev. Joseph M. O’Keefe, SJ—also provide keen insights into the future of the city and its faith in this valuable reference.
