Contents Introduction : Irish hunger: Irish American crucible -- Floodtide: framing famine memory between 1845 and 1900 -- Latent memory: constructing Irish-American identity in the early 1900s -- Ethnic progression: selective memory by the mid-1900s -- "Where past and present mingle": roadways to remembrance -- Long threatening: from confrontation to commemoration in the 1990s.
Summary Ireland's Great Famine in Irish-American History: Enshrining a Fateful Memory recasts traditional approaches to the Irish experience in America in a striking new reading of the history. This is the first compact synthesis to place Ireland's Great Famine at the heart of the modern ethnic narrative, and to explore the Famine's Irish-American legacy as a key factor in its course.
