Includes bibliographical references and index.
Between 1800 and 1914, over 8 million people emigrated from Ireland. Of this number, some 300,000 had their fares paid by the British government, landlords, poor law unions and philanthropists. This is the story of these people, and the struggles they faced to establish themselves in North America.
