Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Scotch-Irish in America: Their History, Traits, Institutions and Influences: Especially as Illustrated in the Early Settlers of Western Pennsylvania and Their Descendants
I have read with deep interest the advance sheets of The scotch-irish in America, by Rev. Dr. John W. Dinsmore, my friend, and former pas tor. It is in every respect an admir able book. Every man who has a drop of scotch-irish blood in his veins will be profoundly interested in its perusal. Dr. Dinsmore knows whereof he writes. Nothing the book contains is matter of hearsay to him. The people described are those among whom he was reared - his neighbors and friends; the incidents mentioned, those of which he was the witness in his early life.
