Description:... "The information presented in this study uses selected networks of dispersion, pioneer journeying, and canal and railroad construction to demonstrate the geographical distribution that was to be a key aspect of Irish passage into American life. The regional variations of this passage will be examined and the import of the interaction of the Irish with American institutions and culture will be evaluated, again using particular examples of social interchange"--Introduction.
