Book Description
In the early part of the 20th century millions of Irish citizens made their way to America in one of the greatest ethnic migrations in recorded history. Some came to escape poverty and hardship, others to avoid religious persecution and the violence that accompanied it. If pressed, most would say-“To Build A Better Life.” But Jack Nolan came for guns. In doing so he set in motion a series of events that would shatter one family and bring another to the very heights of power. THE GREEN BLOODS- RESURGENCE is part of a multigenerational saga that follows the fortunes and the failings of the Nolan's and the O'Leary's from the year 1914 to present day, set against the historical events that shaped twentieth century Ireland and Irish Americans. As a new country struggles to emerge from centuries of oppression, old friendships are tested and ultimately destroyed. Love is found and lost. Greed, corruption, drugs, and violence defi ne lives and darken even the purest of souls. And now, three generations later, two siblings once separated by an ocean, each committed to inheriting an empire, with one sibling bent on destroying the other. THE GREEN BLOODS.

Book Description
Outrageous, hilarious, and absolutely candid, Blood Makes the Grass Grow Green is Johnny Rico’s firsthand account of fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan, a memoir that also reveals the universal truths about the madness of war. No one would have picked Johnny Rico for a soldier. The son of an aging hippie father, Johnny was overeducated and hostile to all authority. But when 9/11 happened, the twenty-six-year-old probation officer dropped everything to become an “infantry combat killer.” But if he’d thought that serving his country would be the kind of authentic experience a reader of The Catcher in the Rye would love, he quickly realized he had another thing coming. In Afghanistan he found himself living a Lord of the Flies existence among soldiers who feared civilian life more than they feared the Taliban–guys like Private Cox, a musical prodigy busy “planning his future poverty,” and Private Mulbeck, who didn’t know precisely which country he was in. Life in a combat zone meant carnage and courage–but it also meant tedious hours standing guard, punctuated with thoughtful arguments about whether Bea Arthur was still alive. Utterly uncensored and full of dark wit, Blood Makes the Grass Grow Green is a poignant, frightening, and heartfelt view of life in this and every man’s army.

Book Description
On May 26, 1889, four thousand mourners proceeded down Chicago's Michigan Avenue, followed by a crowd forty thousand strong, in a howl of protest at what commentators called one of the ghastliest and most curious crimes in civilized history. The dead man, Dr. P. H. Cronin, was a respected Irish physician, but his brutal murder uncovered a web of intrigue, secrecy, and corruption that stretched across the United States and far beyond. O'Brien tells the story of Cronin's murder from the police investigation to the trial-- and the story of a booming immigrant population clamoring for power at a time of unprecedented change.
