In his newly-published book, celebrated Dartmouth historian Colin Calloway focuses on the unique role of Scotch-Irish immigrants in America’s long westward movement. The Scotch-Irish fought Indian wars and shaped the frontier, and their experiences living near, and fighting against, Indians shaped their identity and their attitudes towards government, with repercussions that continue to this day. Free copies of the book will be available to the first 20 students in attendance.
