"I really was fascinated how much influence the Irish background really was for the Kennedys. You get hints about it in other books, but this really fills in a much needed gap in the Kennedy literature. You should read this book to get a fuller picture of the Kennedy clan."
"I was really surprised by this book to learn about how much Irish imigrants, and catholics, were persecuted 100-150 years ago. I'd known about John Kennedys comments on the separation of church and state, but reading this book puts that speech in a whole new context."
