<p>The Irish, Kansas City's largest ethnic immigrant group ever, hauled stones to build foundations and buckets of water to put out fires. They cut the throats of a million cattle, laid miles of bricks and rails, drove the streetcars, kept and distrubed the peace, organized the working poor and kicked down barriers at City Hall and the courthouse for themselves and many generations and nationalities to come. Lavishly illustrated with photos from family collections and historic and newspaper archives, From the Bottom Up features a soft cover with a photo montage, for a handsome addition to the library of anyone who is proud of that wee touch of Irish blood - or simply interested in a fascinating perspective on how Kansas City came to be.</p>
