4.0 out of 5 stars
Interesting selection of Scotch-Irish related academic essays,
By
This review is from: Ulster and North America: Transatlantic Perspectives on the Scotch Irish (Paperback)
This is a seminal collection of eleven academic essays chosen from eighteen years of the Ulster-American Symposium regarding Scotland and Ireland as well as North America. Many are local studies which include demographic research, folklore, geography, and linguistics that add to the existing Scotch-Irish historiography while debunking or clarifying many popular myths. A major theme is the rapid Scotch-Irish assimilation into American society in contradiction to the theories of those who argue the persistence of Scotch-Irish, British Borderland, and Celtic traits.
