In 1912, he graduated from Harvard and married Rose in 1914, the daughter of then-Boston mayor, John Fitzgerald.

Describing France to you has resulted in many inbound emails… “Are you blind? Open the news and see the riots! You’re missing the big picture…” are the types of comments sent to us, but I didn’t just spend three weeks in Europe for nothing.
