From rong>therong> rong>earlyrong> s to rong>therong> rong>earlyrong> s, no fewer than seven million people emigrated from Ireland to north America. This vast flow amounted to much more than mere numbers: it at once reflected and compelled enormous social changes on both sides rong>ofrong> rong>therong> Atlantic. Emigrants and Exiles chronicles rong>therong> momentous causes rong>ofrong> rong>therong> Irish emigration and its far-reaching impact--on rong>therong> people rong>therong>mselves, on rong>therong> land rong>therong>y left behind, and on rong>therong> new one rong>therong>y came to.
