4.0 out of 5 stars
John Boyle O'Reilly,
By A Customer
This review is from: Fanatic Heart: A Life of John Boyle O'Reilly 1844 - 1890 (Paperback)
This was a well-written, detailed biography of a man who deserves to be more well known than he is. I agree with the other reveiwer that it did focus too much on his time in Australia nad not enough on his Boston career, but that is understandable since it was first published in Australia.

This review is from: Fanatic Heart: A Life of John Boyle O'Reilly 1844 - 1890 (Paperback)
i wish that the author had concentrated more on his career in boston and less on his time spent in australia , but overall this is a superb book for those unfamiliar with o'reilly. o'reilly was way ahead of his time in his social views and in his regard for oppressed groups and should definitely be remembered for that. the author has done a fine job. i greatly admire o'reilly -though i must admit i have a bias as i am related to him indirectly through his wife.
