Seller's Description:
Good. No Jacket. Book. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. ix, 404 p. : ill., maps; 24 cm., biblio., index. Small label remnant on front endpaper. A social history of the Irish immigrants in Leeds and Lansdowne Township, eastern Ontario. Blurb (from a different edition): "For most of the nineteenth century, the Irish formed the largest non-French ethnic group in eastern Canada. Akenson provides a detailed analysis of the process of their settlement and adaptation in an eastern Ontario township. He dispels some of the myths about the Irish as urban dwellers, and offers new assessments of the differences between Irish Protestants and Catholics as they appeared outside the turbulent homeland. This fresh approach to conventional assumptions brings new insights to the history of the Irish, not only in Ontario, but throughout North America."
