Born Fightng- How the Scots-Irish shaped America

This history of Scotland and Ireland and the effect its immigrants had on the US is fascinating and rich with detail and description. A must read for people of that descent and to anyone who enjoys a well written history and political analysis.

I found my roots

This book was a revelation to me. It explained so much about my Southern heritage and made me appreciate my Scots Irish ancestry. I always admired my father's "indifference to wealth" without realizing that this was a common trait among Scots-Irish Americans. I want to read more of Jim Webb's books since I enjoyed this one so much.

A Bluegrass Review

Being from the Bluegrass state, I am related and neighbors to the ethnic group spoke of so well by Senator Webb. This book is entertaining as well as informative. I have read one of his novels but will be trying the others soon.

A Time To Fight

A must read for anyone who has an interest in our current world problems as well as current economic issues we are facing

GREAT READ , HOWEVER , PRINTING JOB WAS SLOPPY

I READ BORN FIGHTING AS A BOOK CLUB ASSIGNMENT AND OBTAINED THE BOOK FROM THE LIBRARY . I ENJOYED IT SO MUCH THAT I ORDERED FIVE PAPERBACKS TO GIVE AS GIFTS . AFTER ABOUT 250 PAGES THE BOOKS REVERTED TO PAGE 45 AND REPEATED ABOUT 30 PAGES AND THEN RESUMED THE STORY AT ABOUT 285. THE RESULT WAS VERY DISAPPOINTING AND EMBARRASSING TO ME . I DON'T KNOW IF THERE IS ANY RECOURCE TO THE PRINTER OR TO AMAZON.COM BUT I WOULD BE INTERESTED TO KNOW IF THIS HAPPENED TO ANYONE ELSE .
