The Irishman is great art . . . but it is not, as we know, great history . . . Frank Sheeran . . . surely didnt kill Hoffa . . . But who pulled the trigger? . . . For some of the real story, and for a great American tale in itself, you want to go to Jack Goldsmiths book, In Hoffas Shadow. Peggy Noonan, The Wall Street Journal'In Hoffas Shadow is compulsively readable, deeply affecting, and truly groundbreaking in its reexamination of the Hoffa case . . . a monumental achievement.' James Rosen, The Wall Street JournalAs a young man, Jack Goldsmith revered his stepfather, longtime Jimmy Hoffa associate Chuckie OBrien. But as he grew older and pursued a career in law and government, he came to doubt and distance himself from the man long suspected by the FBI of perpetrating Hoffas disappearance on behalf of the mob. It was only years later, when Goldsmith was serving as assistant attorney general in the George W. Bush administration and questioning its misuse of surveillance and other powers, that he began to reconsider his stepfather, and to understand Hoffas true legacy.In Hoffas Shadow tells the moving story of how Goldsmith reunited with the stepfather hed disowned and then set out to unravel one of the twentieth centurys most persistent mysteries and Chuckies role in it. Along the way, Goldsmith explores Hoffas rise and fall and why the golden age of bluecollar America came to an end, while also casting new light on the centuryold surveillance state, the architects of Hoffas disappearance, and the heartrending complexities of love and loyalty.
