Book Talk and Signing with James Redfearn

James Redfearn will sign and talk about his book, The Rising at Roxbury Crossing.

Boston"copper" and Irish immigrant Willie Dwyer is haunted by a decade-old nightmare, a legacy of his own involvement in his native land's rebel uprising. When the police strike for fair pay and tolerable working conditions and just as the city erupts in chaos and confusion, Willie's nemesis crosses an ocean to hunt him down and disclose his secret.

In The Rising at Roxbury Crossing, America is seeking its lost identity in postwar 1919, as radical revolutionaries, high unemployment, and labor unrest challenge the nation's democratic institutions.
