This classic is the scholarly case study with both sociological and historical perspectives. He describes the character and culture of this unique and wandering people, from Scotland to Ireland to North America. He acknowledges their military and political accomplishments while debunking many enduring myths. For example, though he found some earlier uses of the term 'Scotch-Irish' in Britain, he supports the view that it only came into general use in America following the substantial Irish Catholic immigration of the 19th century.
