This rare epistolary collection from the Civil War era preserves, amidst a recounting of the martial actions of the Irish Brigade, Peter Welsh's reflections on migration, citizenship, and what we owe to our institutions in an era of prejudice and discrimination.
Very seldom does one come across so inspiring a volume. . . . It belongs in every Irish-American library. . . . Anyone with an interest in the Civil War and/or the history of the Irish in America should own a copy of this very fine work.——Irish Edition
