"David Brundage has erected a milestone in the worlds of Irish and Irish Diaspora studies. Sweeping from the United Irish Rebellion of 1798 to the Good Friday Agreement of 1998, this is a masterful study of the two tumultuous centuries of Irish American nationalism. It is a deeply researched account-and a sophisticated and judicious yet sympathetic analysis-of the long struggle by Irish emigrants and exiles to free their homeland from the shackles of British imperialism."-Kerby A. Miller, author of Emigrants and Exiles: Ireland and the Irish Exodus to North America "David Brundage brilliantly incorporates the traditional concerns of social history into a transnational political framework. Seeing nationalism as a dynamic process of social conflict, political imagination, and cultural invention, he shows how Irish nationalists in America-a colorful gallery of activists, journalists, politicians, intellectuals, and artists-shaped history on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean from the American Revolution to the present."-Kevin Kenny, author of Diaspora: A Very Short Introduction "David Brundage's Irish Nationalists in America is an extraordinary achievement, distilling the fruits of prodigious research to present a judicious analysis of the role of Irish immigrants in influencing often turbulent Anglo-American relations over two centuries-from the Irish rebellion of 1798 to the Good Friday Agreement of 1998, a triumph of American diplomacy in Northern Ireland brokered against the odds by Senator George Mitchell with the support of President Clinton."-J. Joseph Lee, Glucksman Ireland House, New York University, "Brundage succeeds in providing a readable and persuasive analysis that draws on an impressive body of research while addressing the diverse secondary literature on the topic This will be the starting point for future studies of Irish nationalism in the US for some time. Brundage ties together a long and complex history by close attention to the people and personal conflicts involved. He is also thoroughly familiar with the secondary literature. The book will work well in courses on Irish history as well as on Irish America and the Irish diaspora generally. The bibliography is a resource in itself."--CHOICE "David Brundage delivers a most effective overview. It begins poignantly--like so many things Irish--with a commemoration, in a Brooklyn graveyard, twenty years ago, over the widow of the romantic homeland martyr, Wolfe Tone. Like the death of Sholem Aleichem in the Bronx, this little event points toward an undeniable globalism."-Paul Buhle, Labor Online "David Brundage has erected a milestone in the worlds of Irish and Irish Diaspora studies.

Lee, New York University, "Brundage succeeds in providing a readable and persuasive analysis that draws on an impressive body of research while addressing the diverse secondary literature on the topic.

Synopsis
In this important and insightful work, David Brundage tells a dramatic story of more two hundred years of American activism in the cause of Ireland, from the 1798 Irish rebellion to the 1998 Good Friday Agreement., In this important work of deep learning and insight, David Brundage gives us the first full-scale history of Irish nationalists in the United States. Beginning with the brief exile of Theobald Wolfe Tone, founder of Irish republican nationalism, in Philadelphia on the eve of the bloody 1798 Irish rebellion, and concluding with the role of Bill Clinton's White House in the historic 1998 Good Friday Agreement in Northern Ireland, Brundage tells a story of more than two hundred years of Irish American (and American) activism in the cause of Ireland. The book, though, is far more than a narrative history of the movement. Brundage effectively weaves into his account a number of the analytical themes and perspectives that have transformed the study of nationalism over the last two decades. The most important of these perspectives is the "imagined" or "invented" character of nationalism. A second theme is the relationship of nationalism to the waves of global migration from the early nineteenth century to the present and, more precisely, the relationship of nationalist politics to the phenomenon of political exile. Finally, the work is concerned with Irish American nationalists' larger social and political vision, which sometimes expanded to embrace causes such as the abolition of slavery, women's rights, or freedom for British colonial subjects in India and Africa, and at other times narrowed, avoiding or rejecting such "extraneous" concerns and connections. All of these themes are placed within a thoroughly transnational framework that is one of the book's most important contributions. Irish nationalism in America emerges from these pages as a movement of great resonance and power. This is a work that will transform our understanding of the experience of one of America's largest immigrant groups and of the phenomenon of diasporic or "long-distance" nationalism more generally., In this important work of deep learning and insight, David Brundage gives us the first full-scale history of Irish nationalists in the United States.
