Over P. J. Clarke's Bar by Helen Marie Clarke

Looks back at one of New York City's famous landmark saloons (in an age when they are quickly disappearing) and an eloquent memoir by the former owner's grandniece, which details in sharp relief the excitement of days gone by.
Helen Marie Clarke is a grandniece of Patrick Joseph Clarke, founder of the legendary Clarke's Bar in New York City. Her father and his brothers were brought up in an apartment beside Paddy Clarke's own apartment above the bar, and the saloon forms an intrinsic part of her family history. Clarke has a doctorate in humanities from the University of Texas and teaches writing and literature in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
