The Construction of Irish Identity in American Literature
This book examines the development of literary constructions of Irish-American identity from the mid-nineteenth century arrival of the Famine generation through the Great Depression. It goes beyond an analysis of negative Irish stereotypes and shows how Irish characters became the site of intense cultural debate regarding American identity, with some writers imagining Irishness to be the antithesis of Americanness, but others suggesting Irishness to be a path to Americanization. This study emphasizes the importance of considering how a sense of Irishness was imagined by both Irish-American writers conscious of the process of self-definition as well as non-Irish writers responsive to shifting...
Insanity
Nothing can match the horrors found within the human mind. Jeremy Heston’s future was once bright with possibility. As a psychology major at a prestigious university, he was planning for a future full of promise and love. Until a series of unfortunate circumstances plunge him into a downward spiral. In that moment of emotional vulnerability, his professor convinces him to undertake an intensive study into the depths of mental illness. There, in the midst of his dark research, demented thoughts begin to twist Jeremy’s mind. He can feel his control slipping—the life he once knew crumbling around him—yet fears he’s come too far to give up on his potentially lethal experiment. Can Jeremy find the answers he seeks in time to save the ill? Or will the only legacy he leaves be that of a mad man? Fans of psychological thrillers and gripping page-turners will be swept up by Insanity, book one in the Insanity Trilogy.

The Irish and the Origins of American Popular Culture
This book focuses on the intersection between the assimilation of the Irish into American life and the emergence of an American popular culture, which took place at the same historical moment in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. During this period, the Irish in America underwent a period of radical change. Initially existing as a marginalized, urban-dwelling, immigrant community largely comprised of survivors of the Great Famine and those escaping its aftermath, Irish Americans became an increasingly assimilated group with new social, political, economic, and cultural opportunities open to them. Within just a few generations, Irish-American life transformed so significantly that grandc...

Race, Politics, and Irish America
Figures from the Scots-Irish Andrew Jackson to the Caribbean-Irish Rihanna, as well as literature, film, caricature, and beauty discourse, convey how the Irish racially transformed multiple times: in the slave-holding Caribbean, on America's frontiers and antebellum plantations, and along its eastern seaboard. This cultural history of race and centuries of Irishness in the Americas examines the forcibly transported Irish, the eighteenth-century Presbyterian Ulster-Scots, and post-1845 Famine immigrants. Their racial transformations are indicated by the designations they acquired in the Americas: 'Redlegs,' 'Scots-Irish,' and 'black Irish.' In literature by Fitzgerald, O'Neill, Mitchell, Glas...
