A historical novel about William Keane, a journalist rebel during the 1790's in Northern Ireland. "The Star Man, an impressive blend of scholarship and inspiration, enumerates the causes of disruption and disaffection while keeping its tone lively and its narrative engaging"--Irish Times. "The novel is a vibrant mixture of the frolicsome and the horrific, leaving you with a feeling that you have been dancing on skulls"-- Sunday Times. "A wonderful book"--Gerry Adams.

The implosion of the Soviet Union was the culmination of a gripping game played  out between two men who intensely disliked each other and had different  concepts for the future. Mikhail Gorbachev, a sophisticated and urbane  reformer, sought to modernize and preserve the USSR; Boris Yeltsin, a coarse  and a hard drinking “bulldozer,” wished to destroy the union and create a  capitalist Russia. The defeat of the August 1991 coup attempt, carried out by  hardline communists, shook Gorbachev’s authority and was a triumph for Yeltsin.  But it took four months of intrigue and double-dealing before the Soviet Union  collapsed and the day arrived when Yeltsin could hustle Gorbachev out of the  Kremlin, and move in as ruler of Russia.

In 1988 Forbes Magazine hailed Chuck Feeney as the twenty-third richest American alive. Born in Elizabeth, New Jersey to a blue-collar Irish-American family during the Depression, a veteran of the Korean War, he had made a fortune as co-founder of Duty Free Shoppers, the world's largest duty-free retail chain. But secretly, Feeney had already transferred all his wealth to his foundation, Atlantic Philanthropies. Only in 1997, when he sold his duty free interests, was he "outed" as one of the greatest and most mysterious American philanthropists in modern times. A frugal man who travels economy class and does not own a house or a car, Feeney then went "underground" again, until he decided in 2005 to cooperate in a biography to promote giving-while-living. Now in his mid-seventies, he is determined his foundation should spend the remaining 4 billion in his lifetime. The Billionaire Who Wasn't is a tale of one of the greatest untold retail triumphs of the twentieth century, and of what happens to a unique man and his family when confronted with wealth beyond imagining.
