Offering the first comprehensive study of Irish immigrants in the 19th-century South, Gleeson adds a long-overlooked chapter to the story of the Irish in America, which has previously focused almost entirely on the North. He traces the often difficult process by which the Irish, at first set apart from their new neighbors by language, religion, class, and culture, slowly came to be integrated into the "solid South" of the post-Reconstruction era.
