Until the 1950s, the Irish were by far the largest ethnic minority in Britain. This leading study focuses on the most important phase of Irish migration, providing an analytical discussion of why and how the Irish settled in such numbers.

The Irish Diaspora in Britain, 1750-1939, second edition:
- examines key aspects of the social, religious and political worlds of these migrants
- explores both Catholic and Protestant immigrants
- explains why they were so often the victims of native hostility
- adopts a truly Britain-wide approach
- draws upon the latest research and a wide range of printed primary sources.

Thoroughly revised, updated and expanded, the new edition of this essential text broadens the analysis to 1939 and now features additional chapters on gender and the Irish diaspora in transnational perspective.
