Beschreibung: | Numerous thematic entries on evocative Irish-American symbols and markers of transnational identity like the Ancient Order of Hibernians, Grosse Ille, the Boston Irish, and the impact of the Kennedy family. Extensive bibliographies listing sources ranging from archival letters to the most recent scholarship from Ireland and the nations of the Americas. Provides the most extensive coverage available of influential events outside the U.S. involving Irish emigrants, including General O'Higgins' role in the creation of Chile, Canadian General de Chastelain's role in bringing peace to Ulster, and the alleged IRA backing for Colombian guerrillas. Examines the profound influence of the nations of the Americas on modern Ireland, both in the Republic and in Northern Ireland. Covers the migration process in its entirety from the moment of departure from Ireland to the foundation, establishment, and consolidation of transatlantic Irish communities over a period of generations in both North and South America. |
