Ireland is known worldwide as a country that produce emigrants. The
existence of the Irish diaspora' is the subject of this fifth
instalment of the 'Irish perspectives' collaboration between Pen
and Sword and History Ireland. From the early Christian era Irish
missionaries travelled across Europe, from the early modern period
Irish soldiers served across the world in various European armies
and empires, and in the modern era, Ireland's position on the edge
of the Atlantic made Irish emigrants amongst the most visible
migrants in an era of mass migration. Ranging from Europe to Africa
to the Americas and Australia, this anthology explores the lives
and experiences of Irish educators, missionaries, soldiers,
insurgents, from those who simply sought a better life overseas to
those with little choice in the matter, and who established an
Irish presence across the globe as they did so.
