Summary
An engaging yet objective look at the 350 year old history of Southie, a neighborhood that has survived largely unchanged since the early days of immigrant Irish families and old time political bosses. Originally published by Quinlan Press in 1988 and reprinted by Northeastern University Press in 1994. With a new foreword by Lawrence W. Kennedy.
