The first Kennedys : the humble roots of an American dynasty / Neal Thompson.
Today, we remember the Kennedys as an iconic American family - the vanguard of wealth, power, and style rather than as the descendants of poor immigrants. Based on genealogical breakthroughs and previously unreleased records, this is the first book to explore the inspiring story of the poor Irish refugee couple, Patrick and Bridget Kennedy, who escaped famine, created a life together in a city hostile to Irish, immigrants, and Catholics, and launched the Kennedy dynasty in America.
