The People with No Name

Meer over het boek

The book delves into the migration of over 100,000 Ulster Presbyterians of Scottish descent to the American colonies before the American Revolution, marking a significant movement from the British Isles. Utilizing extensive archival research, it examines how these individuals, often labeled as "Scotch-Irish," adapted to profound religious, economic, and cultural shifts. Patrick Griffin's clear prose reveals how these migrants forged new identities and contributed to the formation of a broader transatlantic community, highlighting their unique experiences in both the Old and New Worlds.
