DOC The Celtic and Scandinavian Religions by J.A MacCulloch in History

Description

First published in 1966; R.J. Dickson's Ulster Emigration to Colonial America 1718-1775 remains the acknowledged work of scholarship on migration in the 18th century of a quarter of a million people from Ulster to the New World. It combines detailed investigation of the economic; social and political background to the exodus with information on the emigrant trade and an analysis of the motivations and origins of the emigrants themselves. This new edition includes a specially written Introduction by Graeme Kirkham; whose researches on both sides of the Atlantic are reflected in an essay which considers recent advances in the understanding of this important mass population movement from Ireland to America.
