These God -fearing, family-oriented, hard-working, nomadic people, who originated in the lowlands of Scotland and moved to the north of Ireland, arrived on the American shores in great numbers prior to the American Revolutionary War. Detested in Pennsylvania by the Quakers, they fanned out and quickly sifted like wind-strewn thistle westward and southward into the American backcountry. The saga chronicles the migratory path taken by one family that settled in the extremely significant, Scots-Irish Long Canes settlement in South Carolina. ; 142 pages; Signed by Author.
