This book is by no means intended to be a listing of every Irish pub in the city or even every significant Irish pub. Rather it should be seen as a sampling of the kinds of stories every Irish pub has to tell. As such, we are indebted to many of the owners of Chicago’s fine establishments who shared their families’ histories with us.
We also would like to thank city historian Tim Samuelson, Richard Lindberg, Dave Hoekstra, Tom Boyle, Brian Donovan, the staff of the Irish American Heritage Center, Cliff Carlson of the Irish American News, the Southeast Chicago Historical Society, Ed Kane of Louis Glunz Beer Inc., and all others who provided sources and background on significant Irish pubs. Arcadia Publishing, especially Melissa Basilone and John Pearson, helped bring this story to life.
A version of the Murray’s story told in The Pub as Immigrant Experience originally appeared in Elgin’s The Courier-News.
