The Irish are everywhere in America, from Frank McCourt (with two   books on the bestseller lists), to Riverdance, to PBS specials, to Pierce   Brosnan (James Bond is really Irish-American--we knew it all time) to U2, etc.   And immigrants are everywhere. This book tells the story of one of the most   visible groups of immigrants in the major city of immigrants in the last half of   the twentieth-century.
