Is there still a distinct Irish identity in America? This highly original survey says yes, though it’s often an indirect one. Opening a new window on the meanings of Irishness over the twentieth century, this work also reveals how Catholicism, so key to the identity of earlier generations of Irish Americans, has also evolved.
