Many Irish-Americans today know little about Ireland and their ancestry. Historian Juilene Osborne-McKnight presents Irish-American history in a compelling narrative form, accented with photographs, illustrations, and original, literary interludes. Osborne-McKnight pays homage to her ancestry in this chronicle of the Irish from ancient times to contemporary America.

#Irishroots #IrishAmerican #ancestry

The author, a professor of English with a specialty in Irish American studies, & a traditional Irish storyteller or “seanchai”, has written about Ireland, its history, its people, its myths & its ancient traditions. This is a complement to Thomas Cahill‘s earlier book. Each section ends with an annotated bibliography, which I found invaluable.
