"Women of Southie tells the story of six women who grew up in and, in most cases, still live in their beloved town of South Boston, a place sadly most often recognized as the home of organized crime boss James "Whitey" Bulger. While Whitey might have been ruling the town with an iron fist, what the town ought to have been recognized for are the far braver women who ruled their own lives and their families with greater strength and conviction as they faced the heartaches and tragedies of murder, death of loved ones, suicide, addiction, abuse, and PTSD. None of these women ever backed down from the most important fight--the fight for themselves and their families. Each one of the women emerges on these pages as a shining light of what love of family, courage, and an indomitable spirit can accomplish."--Page [4] of cover.
