3.0 out of 5 stars
Uncritical though entertaining but poorly organized.,
By
This review is from: The Scotch-Irish Or the Scot in North Britain, North Ireland and North America 2 (Paperback)
An early, verbose, and uncritical contribution to the Scotch-Irish corpus that includes anything remotely Scottish and Scotch-Irish. There is an 'everything but the kitchen sink thrown in' quality lacking organization though often entertaining and occasionally useful but with the sum less than the parts.
