Everyone loves the Irish, and their wit, wisdom and humor have been passed down through generations of sons and daughters of the Emerald Isle. Here are the quotable words of Irish-Americans--from the hilarious to the poignant and the profound, immortalized by statesmen, writers, actors, comdians, sports figures, and many others--all who claim a special way with words born of a proud Irish heritage.

[Joy Gerbode · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a book of quotes on various subjects (organized by subject) from Irish Americans. While there are several good, quotable quotes, and I enjoyed the read quite a bit (especially noticing names of people I never thought of as Irish) most of the quotes were not anything particularly inspirational or humorous or of exceptional value.
