There is a frontispiece and black and white photographs on glossy stock. From jacket flap: "Walsh's rise to prominence has an air of Abraham Lincoln's life about it. Born into a poor Irish-immigrant family,he became he first Catholic and first Democrat ever elected governor of Massachusetts and was the only Catholic ever elected as a United States senator from that Yankee New England state (at the time of this book's publication).
