The green & white house : Ireland and the US presidents
Kelleher, Lynne2022
Book
The links between Ireland and the Presidents of the United States of America go a lot further and deeper than JFK. From President Andrew Jackson in 1829 to President Joe Biden in 2021, Ireland has had a hugely significant influence in the White House. Some of that influence has been direct, some more oblique, but the story of this continuing bond between these two nations is both fascinating and entertaining. This volume takes an affectionate and wry look at the special relationship this tiny nation of less than six million people has with the greatest superpower in the world.
