"A systematic account of the contributions of Welsh immigrants to the United States. This book is the first systematic attempt to both recount and evaluate the considerable, though undervalued, contributions of Welsh immigrants to the development of the United States. Vivienne Sanders recounts the lives and achievements of Welsh immigrants and their descendants within a narrative outline of American history that emphasizes the Welsh influence upon the colonists' rejection of British rule, as well as upon the establishment, expansion, and industrialization of the new American nation." |
