BOOKS - The Scotch-Irish. Two Volumes in One
By: Charles A. Hanna
Another historical reprint by Global Heritage Press Inc.
This is the basic sourcebook on the Scotch-Irish in North America, a massive compilation (more than 1200 pages) of source records pertaining to the Scots who settled in the north of Ireland and their descendants in America.
This unusual term [Scotch-Irish] refers to those Presbyterian Scots who settled in Ulster (modern-day Northern Ireland) during the seventeenth century. From these 200,000 original settlers, up to 2 million of their descendants eventually reached North America.
The Scotch-Irish left Ulster as a result of neo-mercantilist British economic policy in the region, requirements that they pay 10% of their income to the Anglican Church, ongoing friction with their Catholic Irish neighbors, and greater economic opportunity in the New World. The Scotch-Irish settled throughout the North American colonies.
