Viac o knihe
The book explores the rich heritage of the Scots-Irish, who significantly influenced American culture and identity. It highlights their migration to America in the 18th century, driven by a history of conflict and a strong sense of individualism. The Scots-Irish brought essential skills as frontiersmen and guerrilla fighters, shaping the military ethos and working-class values in the U.S. Their legacy is intertwined with the development of a uniquely populist American democracy, reflecting their disdain for aristocracy and commitment to personal freedom.
