A biography of one of America's most successful immigrants. After arriving in America in 1846, Irish-born William R. Grace worked his way up from ordinary seaman to become master of a vast commercial empire, reformer of the Democratic Party and New York City's first Catholic mayor.
This biography was written by two-time Pulitzer winner Marquis James in 1948, but was never published. W.R. Grace''s son commissioned James to write it when the author was at the height of his career. However, as Viking Press was about to print the book, the Grace company decided not to release it. It then lay in the firm''s archives until it was uncovered by Lawrence Clayton of the University of Alabama.
