Here is the shocking true saga of the Irish American mob. In Paddy Whacked , bestselling author and organized crime expert T. J. English brings to life nearly two centuries of Irish American gangsterism, which spawned such unforgettable characters 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 seemingly untouchable Southie legend.
