Michael McLean's touching Christmas tale has become a timeless
classic. It tells the story of a nurse whose empty life is changed
by her patient, John, who expands her understanding of Christmas.
"The Forgotten Carols" are original songs from the perspective of
characters such as the innkeeper who turned the young couple away
or the shepherd who slept through the angel's announcement. Their
personal accounts, until now, have been overlooked or ignored.
Together, John and Constance discover what the world has forgotten
about Christmas.

The Irish King of Winter Hill is the story of the rise and fall
James J. Buddy McLean, from his humble beginnings as a hardworking
truck driver in Boston, to leading the original and now infamous
Winter Hill Gang, to his untimely murder in 1965. He will best be
remembered for eliminating the McLaughlin Gang from Charlestown
during the 1960s McLean-McLaughlin Irish gang war. Buddy, who
worked on the Boston docks in the late 1950s and early 1960s with
his father's union card, was also a teamster from Local No. 25.
This was a time when gangsters ran the docks. This story is written
by Michael McLean, who says, I have read all the books and the
information on the Internet about my father, and most of it is
wrong. After talking to his closest friends, I decided I would set
the record straight. About the Author: Michael McLean grew up in
Somerville, Massachusetts, and now lives in South Boston. Most of
this book takes place in Somerville. The first-time author works on
the docks using his father's union card, which has now been handed
down for three generations. Publisher's website: http:
