About this product

Product Information

Twice-jailed scoundrel and the people's champion, builder of hospitals and schools and shameless grafter, compelling orator and master of political farce, James Michael Curley was the stuff of legend long before his life became fiction in Edwin O'Connor's classic novel The Last Hurrah. As mayor of Boston, as congressman, as governor of Massachusetts, Curley rose from the Irish slums in a career extending from the Progressive Era of Teddy Roosevelt to the ascendancy of JFK. Beatty's spellbinding story of this remarkable man-and of his city, his people, and his times-is biography at its best.

  • Indeed a rascal!

    Love the book! I was six years old when Curley died and remember lots of media coverage about him. I remember reading this book and laughing out loud at many of the anecdotal stories in the book. If you are a Bostonian this is a must read. If you are interested in grass roots politics you will find this book hugely entertaining since some of Curley's legal woes were helping a wee bit too much with service to his political base. A very entertaining book.
