Essays in Scotch-Irish History
This is a reprint of the second volume in the Ulster Historical Foundation's Historical Series, which was first published in 1969. These five essays were delivered as lectures at a conference on the Scotch-Irish held in Belfast in 1965. This edition contains an introduction by Steve Ickringill re-viewing recent research.

The next paper considers the educational contribution of the Scotch-Irish to colonial America, beginning wi...
01 .Industrial Archaeology. European approach to recovery productive memory
[Italiano]: Il libro raccoglie i contributi di un lavoro interdisciplinare svolto durante un BIP (Blended Intensive Program) finanziato dalla comunità europea.

In the first bioarchaeological study of Great Famine victims, Jonny Geber uses skeletal analysis to tell the story of how and why the Famine decimated the lowest levels of nineteenth cent...

Where There Are Mountains
A timely study of change in a complex environment, Where There Are Mountains explores the relationship between human inhabitants of the southern Appalachians and their environment. Incorporating a wide variety of disciplines in the natural and social sciences, the study draws information from several viewpoints and spans more than four hundred years of geological, ecological, anthropological, and historical development in the Appalachian region. The book begins with a description of the indigenous Mississippian culture in 1500 and ends with the destructive effects of industrial logging and dam building during the first three decades of the twentieth century. Donald Edward Davis discusses the...
