Paddy Whacked: The Untold Story of the Irish-American Gangster

$19.99

T.J. English
Format: Paperback


In this book T.J. English brings to life nearly two centuries of Irish American gangsterism, which spawned unforgettable characters such as Mike “King Mike” McDonald, Chicago’s subterranean godfather; Big Bill Dwyer, New York’s most notorious rumrunner during Prohibition; Mickey Featherstone, troubled Vietnam vet turned Westies gang leader; and James “Whitey” Bulger, the ruthless and untouchable Southie legend.


At once a brilliant social history, a startling examination of the dark side of the American Dream, and a great rip-roaring yarn spun by a master storyteller….English’s feat of tying it all together is nothing short of a literary triumph.
Thomas Kelly — author of EMPIRE RISING
