Publisher's Synopsis
Irish Emigration During The Seventeenth And Eighteenth Centuries is a historical book written by Thomas Addis Emmet and originally published in 1899. The book explores the history of Irish emigration during the 17th and 18th centuries, a time when many Irish people left their homeland to seek a better life elsewhere. Emmet examines the various factors that led to this mass emigration, including political, economic, and social reasons. He also delves into the experiences of Irish emigrants, both in their home country and in the places they settled, such as the United States and Canada. The book provides a detailed account of the conditions that led to the Irish diaspora, including the Great Famine of the 1840s, which saw millions of Irish people leave their homes in search of food and work. Emmet also discusses the impact that Irish emigration had on the countries they settled in, as well as the lasting legacy of the Irish diaspora on Irish culture and identity. Overall, Irish Emigration During The Seventeenth And Eighteenth Centuries offers a comprehensive and insightful look into the history of Irish emigration, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Irish history, the history of emigration, or the Irish diaspora.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
