Campey, Lucille H.

Atlantic Canada's Irish Immigrants : a Fish and Timber Story / Lucille H. Campey.  Toronto : Dundurn, 2016. 424 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm.

Nova Scotia Archives Library - FC2020 I6 C34 2016 - Open Shelf

Series: Irish in Canada (Dundurn Publishers). Lucille Campey traces the relocation of around ninety thousand Irish people to their new homes in Atlantic Canada. She shatters the widespread misconception that the exodus was primarily driven by the Great Irish Potato Famine of the 1840s. The Irish immigration saga began a century earlier. Although they faced great privations and had to overcome many obstacles, the Irish actively sought the better life that Atlantic Canada offered. Far from being helpless exiles lacking in ambition who went lemming-like to wherever they were told to go, the Irish grabbed their opportunities and prospered in their new home. Using wide-ranging documentary sources, the author provides new insights about why the Irish left and considers why they chose their various locations in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland. She highlights how, through their skills and energy, they benefitted themselves and contributed much to the development of Atlantic Canada. Lucille H. Campey was born in Ottawa. She is the author of eight books on early Scottish emigration to Canada and three on English emigration to Canada. Includes bibliographical references and index.
