Paperback. Zustand: New. Two weeks after the United States officially entered World War I, Irish American ""Bricklayer Bill"" Kennedy won the Boston Marathon wearing his stars-and-stripes bandana, rallying the crowd of patriotic spectators. Kennedy became an American hero and, with outrageous stories of his riding the rails and sleeping on pool tables, a racing legend whose name has since appeared in almost every book written on the Boston Marathon.When journalist Patrick Kennedy and historian Lawrence Kennedy unearthed their uncle's unpublished memoir, they discovered a colorful character who lived a tumultuous life, beyond his multiple marathons.

Bricklayer Bill takes us back to another time, when bricklayers, plumbers, and printers could take the stage as star athletes.…
