More than 40 million people consider themselves Irish American, and yet most of them do not truly understand the rich cultural history of their ancestors. From prehistoric times to the emigration of the Irish to Amerikay, this broad, yet comprehensive, history gives a general overview of the deep history of Irish Americans.

The book includes such interesting topics as the four cycles of Irish storytelling, ancient Celtic legends of shape-shifting and Fair Folk, the six Gaelic languages and their relation to one another, the Gallic Wars with Julius Caesar, the Anglo-Norman invasion, the sacred ceremonies and religious beliefs of the Druids, the real story of St. Patrick, the Great Famine brought on by British involvement, the mass exodus of Irish to America, and the struggle for Irish Americans to rebuild their lives upon new soil, in an unwelcome land.

I enjoyed the early chapters all the way up to when the English brought a lot of sadness and pain to the Irish. The Irish emigrants made a wonderful contribution to the many nations who welcomed them and the result was well told! Thank you,

Wonderful and well told story.

Started slow, heartbreaking, interesting,..ended amazing, heartfelt, proud. What a great book that tells our ENTIRE story…some of which I didn’t even know. Was recently in Ireland for a month and needed something like this to teach me more and take me back 💚

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was very detailed and yet extremely engaging. The author has a wonderful way of delving into so many facets of Irish History that illuminate numerous aspects of Irish culture. It was a wonderful educational ride opening my eyes to questions I have always had and ones I never thought of.

My father always told me that we were scotch Irish. I did my DNA on ancestry and it showed I was 57% Scottish 11% Irish but I still claim Irish ancestry. This book really humbled me and there was so much information on my Ancestry. I had no idea of all of the suffering that they did, at the hands of Britain. Recent years, I have been watching the queen, the new king and queen and thought my feelings were OK over there actually liking the British honestly after I heard this book, my heart has changed. I’m so mad at Britain for what they did to my ancestors in Ireland. It broke my heart to hear how they were run off their country and meant to be lesser of a human being in Britain’s eyes. I have always told my family we were Irish, and I will continue to learn even more about Scotland and Ireland the home of my ancestors !I am a proud Scottish Irish American.

I absolutely LOVE this book!!

Im glad I got through the mythology at the beginning and stuck with this book. Many interesting revelations about Irish and Irish American history. I plan to listen to the famine part again with my husband before our trip to Ireland because there were some astonishing facts I did not know.

Very interesting read

I’m so grateful to have found this book and I’ll be sharing with my O’Neills and O’Rourkes, the Collins and Clarks, McGraths and Skellys and Whelans!! It’s had a really big impact, and I love that it was researched and written by a woman…

Just incredible.

Perhaps a bit heavy on "ancient" history for my taste, but very well done and enjoyable.
