The Global Dimensions of Irish Identity: Race, Nation, and the Popular Press, 1840-1880
Cian T. McMahon
Though Ireland is a relatively small island on the northeastern fringe of the Atlantic, 70 million people worldwide - including some 45 million in the United States - claim it as their ancestral home. In this wide-ranging, ambitious book, Cian T. McMahon explores the nineteenth-century roots of this transnational identity.
Commendation Quotes: While the Irish diasporic experience has attracted an increasing amount of first-rate research, the range, depth, and intelligence of McMahon's treatment assures "The Global Dimensions of Irish Identity" a place in the very front rank of even so burgeoning a historiography. Indeed it deserves to become a landmark work not only in Irish migration studies but also in migration studies more generally. Commendation Quotes: "The Global Dimensions of Irish Identity" is an impressive, ambitious achievement that crucially extends our understanding of the global impact of the Young Ireland movement. An important and innovative study, this book makes a significant contribution to the field and is bound to appeal to scholars and general readers alike. Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.
