Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the role of Scotch-Irish immigrants in the formation of New England. The author explores their initial arrival in 1718, their subsequent establishment in towns such as Worcester, Pelham, and Colerain, and their struggles to maintain their Presbyterian faith amidst the dominant Puritan culture. The author discusses the cultural and religious tensions that arose between the two groups, particularly regarding taxation and worship, and highlights the Scotch-Irish community's resilience in the face of discrimination. The book provides valuable insights into the complex social and religious dynamics of early New England, and sheds light on the contributions and experiences of a significant immigrant group in American history.
