El pueblo haitiano por James G. Leyburn
CCA-5
I probably would have enjoyed this book more if I was into history more. I found some parts boring, but others fascinating. I much better at reading historical fiction to gain the knowledge of a particular time or place.
I discovered this book on a day trip to Old Salem restored early American village. Obtained the book at the Moravian Book Store. An excellent work of Scotch Irish social history; a great genealogy resource for a great number of Americans. I simply couldn't put the book down until I finished it; over a couple of days. This excellent manuscript has renewed my interest in my ancestors and the early history of Virginia and North Carolina.
An excellent resource on Scotch-Irish history and American immigration.
