Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the recently published address of Bolivar Christian, Esq....we find a number of interesting facts illustrative of the character and habits of the Scotch-Irish settlers of the Valley of Virginia. We have always regarded them...as constituting the very best population that ever came to this continent...for integrity and honor, courage and energy, patriotism and piety, they stand unrivaled among all the men of the past." -Staunton Spectator, Sept. 11, 1860 "We are indebted to Bolivar Christian, Esq., of Augusta, for a copy of...'The Scotch-Irish Settlers of the Valley of Virginia, ' and the address abounds with interesting incidents and facts, and is marked by passages of decided power and beauty." -Richmond Dispatch, Aug. 10, 1860 "On our return to Staunton after an absence of some weeks, we missed the face of our friend Col. Bolivar Christian...we are sorry to lose him as a citizen, and congratulate Lexington upon the acquisition to its society of a genial and cultivated gentleman, to its bar a well-read lawyer." -Staunton Spectator, Feb. 18, 1872. In what way were the Scotch-Irish immigrants, such as those of the Valley of Virginia, a key component of the successful growth of the early United States into what would later become the most powerful country in the world? In 1860, Scotch-Irish American author Bolivar Christian published a well-regarded and much praised short work of 66 pages titled "The Scotch-Irish Settlers in the Valley of Virginia," providing some interesting details of the history of Scotch-Irish settlers in the Valley of Virginia. About the author: Bolivar Christian (1825- 1900), was a lieutenant colonel in the Confederate Army and a lawyer in Virginia and later Kentucky.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Told through the prism of the lives of 21 extraordinary women, this remarkable book offers an alternative vision of Irish history – one that puts the spotlight on women whose contributions have been forgotten or overlooked. Author Clodagh Finn travels through the ages to 'meet', among others, Macha, the Celtic horse goddess of Ulster; St Dahalin, an early Irish saint and miracle worker; Jo Hiffernan, painter and muse to the artists Whistler and Courbet; Jennie Hodgers, a woman who fought as a male soldier in the American Civil War; Sr Concepta Lynch, businesswoman, Dominican sister and painter of a unique Celtic shrine; the Overend sisters, farmers, charity workers and motoring enthusiasts; and Rosemary Gibb, athlete, social worker, clown and accomplished magician. From a Stone Age farmer who lived in Co. Clare more than 5,000 years ago to the modern-day founder of a 3D printing company, this book opens a fascinating window onto the life and times of some amazing women whose stories were shaped by the centuries in which they lived.

This book was released on 2021-08-06 with total page 770 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 17th century, impoverished but brave Scotch-Irish men and women migrated to seek greater opportunities in Virginia: This is their story. There are many accounts written about the Scotch-Irish people who settled in Virginia in the 17th Century, but none as detailed and authentic as this. This work contains records of the first Scotch-Irish pioneers who first breached the mountain barrier sealing off the Atlantic seaboard from the country west of the Blue Ridge. Chalkley describes the daily life, struggles, trails, achievement, failures, occupations, inventions, tools and the moral, spiritual or religious life of the early Scotch-Irish settlers in Virginia. He has also given us accurate genealogical records for the thousands of individuals who wish to trace back their ancestry to Augusta County and the Great Valley of Virginia. In this book you will find; abstracts of court order books, original papers on suits, filed in 1745-1825 and petitions filed in court from 1745. You will also find records of military service that took place during the colonial wars and revolution, marriage bonds, land entries, tax delinquents and many more. This book presents the Scotch-Irish history in its truest and most authentic form.

Download or read book The Irish in the American Civil War written by Damian Shiels and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2013-02-13 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just under 200,000 Irishmen took part in the American Civil War, making it one of the most significant conflicts in Irish history. Hundreds of thousands more were affected away from the battlefield, both in the US and in Ireland itself. The Irish contribution, however, is often only viewed through the lens of famous units such as the Irish Brigade, but the real story is much more complex and fascinating. From the Tipperary man who was the first man to die in the war, to the Corkman who was the last General mortally wounded in action; from the flag bearer who saved his regimental colours at the cost of his arms, to the Roscommon man who led the hunt for Abraham Lincoln's assassin, what emerges in this book is a catalogue of gallantry, sacrifice and bravery.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A permanent settlement was the objective. Support, financial and popular, came from a cross section of English life. It seems obvious from accounts and papers of the period that it was generally thought that Virginia was being settled for the glory of God, for the honor of the King, for the welfare of England, and for the advancement of the Company and its individual members.

Download or read book Pandemic Re-Awakenings written by Guy Beiner and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-30 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pandemic Re-Awakenings offers a multi-level and multi-faceted exploration of a century of remembering, forgetting, and rediscovering the influenza pandemic of 1918-1919, arguably the greatest catastrophe in human history. Twenty-three researchers present original perspectives by critically investigating the hitherto unexplored vicissitudes of memory in the interrelated spheres of personal, communal, medical, and cultural histories in different national and transnational settings across the globe. The volume reveals how, even though the Great Flu was overshadowed by the commemorative culture of the Great War, recollections of the pandemic persisted over time to re-emerge towards the centenary of the 'Spanish' Flu and burst into public consciousness following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The chapters chart historiographical neglect (while acknowledging the often-unnoticed dialogues between scientific and historical discourses), probe silences, and trace vestiges of social and cultural memories that long remained outside of what was considered collective memory.
