For more than 200 years, visions of independence and freedom for Ireland percolated throughout the island and circulated around the Atlantic, as Irishwomen and men were forced to migrate by exigencies, economic and political. The Irish in the United States became a source of people, money, and ideas. Irish and Irish American Nationalism will examine the movements, the ideas, and the personalities, including the exiles, contributing to Irish independence.
