Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. 1st Edition. What do Davy Crockett, Mark Twain, and Neil Armstrong have in common? They are descendants of feisty Scots-Irish immigrants who traveled the ocean to the new world in the early 1700s. These renegades made their mark on the United States through the years, whether as president of the country or as the first family of country music. While many people of Scots-Irish ancestry settled in the American South, few outside the region have heard of these other Irish immigrants or are aware of their vast influence in the making of America. In this book, these remarkably diverse individuals with a shared ancestry take center stage, including: ANDREW JACKSON -- "He was the quintessential Scots-Irish frontier boy. He swore, chewed tobacco, drank whiskey, was willful and reckless, and was generally the wildest, most uncontrollable kid in the village. He was also intensely competitive: under no circumstances would he be defeated."; GILBERT TENNENT -- "Thousands turned out to hear him brandish the terrors of God and the threat of hell for those who did not repent before the final judgment. He howed about sin, retribution, and repentance. . . The power of his preaching ignited America's first Great Awakening"; GEORGE S. PATTON -- "His confidence was legendary -- while Stonewall Jackson inspired his troops with his unwavering faith in God, Patton inspired them with his unwavering faith in himself"; JOHN RANKIN and JOHAN CALDWELL CALHOUN -- "Both men were quintessential Scots-Irishmen: independent, rousing leaders with an indomitable fighting spirit and a passionate dedication to their cause. It seemed inevitable that they would end up as archenemies in the life-and-death struggle that tore the Union apart"; JUNIOR JOHNSON -- "One of NASCAR's all time best racers and its most notorious renegade, [Junior Johnson's]. . . path to becoming an American icon started with an unlikely family venture -- making good moonshine." WILLIAM C. FAULKNER -- "[He] spawned the New American Gothic -- a literary tradition that personified a defeated society turning to the myth of the past."; JAMES E. WEBB -- [President John F.] Kennedy decided Webb was the man to take over NASA, and there was nothing more to be said. . . Webb was in charge of the largest, costliest, and most ambitious engineering project in human history . . . the biggest mobilization since World War II . . . [He would] land a man on the moon and bring him safely home. . . Nothing would get in his way." Expertly researched and fascinating to read, THE OTHER IRISH reveals how the Scots-Irish made America, from politics to popular culture.…
