Molly Maguires and the Detectives

The Molly Maguires were a clandestine group of Irish immigrants, particularly active in Liverpool and the Eastern US, especially Pennsylvania.

They were infiltrated by the famous Pinkerton Detectives, and here Allan Pinkerton recounts the story of their involvement (Summary by LynneT)
