Book excerpt: The Scotch-Irish in America tells the story of the Ulster Plantation and of the influences that formed the character of the Scotch-Irish people.... Henry Jones Ford (1851-1925) was a political scientist, journalist, university professor, and government official.Ford worked as a managing editor and editorial writer from 1872 to 1905, at six different newspapers in three cities (Baltimore, New York and Pittsburgh). Later returning to Baltimore (his hometown), Ford taught at Johns Hopkins University, and afterwards taught at the University of Pennsylvania. He later took a job as professor of politics at Princeton University, at the request of the university's then-president, Woodrow Wilson. Ford's association with Wilson would take him also into politics. When Wilson became governor of New Jersey, he appointed Ford Commissioner of Banking and Insurance; after Wilson became president, Ford was sent to the Philippines on a special mission, reporting directly to the president, and toward the end of Wilson's presidency Ford was named to a position on the Interstate Commerce Commission. Their association would also result in Ford's book Woodrow Wilson, the Man and His Work, which was an account of Wilson's experience on the presidential campaign trail. Ford served as president of the American Political Science Association from 1918 to 1919.

Download or read book The Scotch Irish in America written by Samuel Swett Green and published by . This book was released on 2017-04-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scotch-Irish in America was first delivered as an address to the American Antiquarian Society in 1895 and later published by Charles Hamilton of Worcester, Massachusetts, in the same year. This well-annotated essay provides a clear and informative overview of the history of the Scotch-Irish in north America and includes a useful bibliography of works consulted. As interesting as the address itself is the Appendix, which contains an exchange of rather tetchy correspondence between the author, Samuel Swett Green (a prominent figure in the founding of the American public library system), and Thomas Hamilton Murray, in various newspapers, including the Boston Pilot. Among other matters, Hamilton took issue with the term "Scotch-Irish." Green's address offers a great introduction to the subject, but, twenty years later Henry Jones Ford, a professor at Princeton, was to publish a much more comprehensive history under the same title - The Scotch-Irish in America (ISBN 978-1910375495).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dispelling much of what he terms the 'mythology' of the Scotch-Irish, James Leyburn provides an absorbing account of their heritage.

Download or read book The Irish and the American Presidency written by Nicole Anderson Yanoso and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a widely held notion that, except for the elections of 1928 and 1960, the Irish have primarily influenced only state and local government. The Irish and the American Presidency reveals that the Irish have had a consistent and noteworthy impact on presidential careers, policies, and elections throughout American history. Using US party systems as an organizational framework, this book examines the various ways that Scots-Irish and Catholic Irish Americans, as well as the Irish who remained in eire, have shaped, altered, and sometimes driven such presidential political factors as party nominations, campaign strategies, elections, and White House policymaking.The Irish seem to be inextricably interwoven into important moments of presidential political history. Yanoso discusses the Scots-Irish participation in the American Revolution, the Whiskey Rebellion, and the War of 1812. She describes President Bill Clinton's successful Good Friday Agreement that brought peace and hope to Northern Ireland. And finally, she assesses the now-common presidential visits to Ireland as a strategy for garnering Irish-American support back home.No previous work has explored the impact of Irish and Irish-American affairs on US presidential politics throughout the entire scope of American history. Readers interested in presidential politics, American history, and/or Irish/Irish-American history are certain to find The Irish and the American Presidency enjoyable, informative, and impactful.

Download or read book The Great Anglo Celtic Divide in the History of American Foreign Relations written by Thomas A. Breslin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2011-10-05 with total page 636 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Positing that presidents shape America's foreign policy according to their ethnic heritage, this intriguing volume examines two groups that have dominated the presidency and the distinctly different agendas that have resulted. How is American foreign policy determined? The Great Anglo-Celtic Divide in the History of American Foreign Relations approaches that question from a fascinating perspective, arguing that, to a large extent, the answer lies in the ethnicity of the president. To make its point, this book examines the key foreign policies of American presidents from George Washington to George W. Bush and shows how their most important foreign policy decisions have tended to follow an ethnic pattern. The presidency has been dominated by Americans from English or Celtic backgrounds since the nation's founding, and as readers will discover, the foreign policies of the two groups have been very different. To document those differences, this book analyzes seven alternating periods of political domination by Anglo-Americans and Celtic-Americans, demonstrating how the cycle of change affected the shape and distinguishing characteristics of U.S. foreign policy in matters of war and peace and in relations with other countries.
