Atlantic Canada's Irish Immigrants: A Fish and Timber Story (The Irish in Canada Book 1)

By Lucille H. Campey

Challenging the commonplace view that the Irish immigration saga was primarily driven by dire events in Ireland, Lucille Campey's groundbreaking work redraws the picture of early Irish settlement in Atlantic Canada. Extensively documented, and drawing on all known passenger lists of the period, the book is essential reading.
