The Irish have a long and proud history in America, and New Jersey
is no exception. Beginning with the first Irish immigrants who
settled in every corner of the state, this vital ethnic community
has left an indelible mark on all facets of life in the Garden
State. New Jersey's Irish natives expressed their own discontent
over British oppression by battling alongside colonists in the
American Revolution. Brave Fenians fought to preserve their new
home in the Civil War. New Jersey's Irish also have become
professional athletes, United States Representatives, religious
leaders, spies and business trailblazers. Author and Irish heritage
researcher Tom Fox relays these and other stories that demonstrate
the importance of Ireland to the development of New Jersey and the
United States.
