Introduction -- The great European migration and indigenous populations -- James Mooney (1861-1921): The "Indian Man" and the "Irish Catholic" -- Jeremiah and Alma Curtin's Indian Journeys -- Transnational Dimensions of Irish Anti-Imperialism, 1842-54 -- Shamrock Aborigines: The Irish, the Aboriginal Australians and Their Children -- "It Is Curious How Keenly Allied in Character Are the Scotch Highlander and the Maori": Encounters in a New Zealand Colonial Settlement -- A Thorough Indian: Lord Edward Fitzgerald, Thomas Moore, Adam Kidd, and Irish Identifications with Aboriginal Culture in Canadian Literature -- Michael Power, the Catholic Church, and the Evangelization of the First Nations Peoples of Western Upper Canada, 1841-48 -- Observations of a Scottish Moralist: Indigenous Peoples and the Nationalities of Canada -- "Going to the Land of the Yellow Men": The Representation of Indigenous Americans in Scottish Gaelic Literature -- Transatlantic Rhythms: To the Far Nor'Wast and Back Again -- The Fur Traders' Garden: Horticultural Imperialism in Rupert's Land, 1670-1770 -- Arctic Encounters: Twentieth-Century Scots in the Hudson Bay Company -- Aboriginal Fiddling: The Scottish Connection -- "Teller of Tales": John Buchan, First Baron Tweedsmuir, and Canada's Aboriginal Peoples
The expansion of the British Empire during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries created the greatest mass migration in human history, in which the Irish and Scots played a central, complex, and controversial role. The essays in this volume explore the diverse encounters Irish and Scottish migrants had with Indigenous peoples in North America and Australasia. The Irish and Scots were among the most active and enthusiastic participants in what one contributor describes as 'the greatest single period of land theft, cultural pillage, and casual genocide in world history'.
