HANNA, Ronnie. Land of the Free: Ulster and the American Revolution. Lurgan: Ulster Society, 1992. 115pp. Illustrated. Paperback.[In May 1717, the Friend's Goodwill departed Larne harbour bound for Boston, where she arrived in September of the same year. The 52 passengers she carried were the vanguard of a massive exodus of Ulster people to the American colonies up to the outbreak of the War of Independence. This book traces the story of the Ulster emigrants and the Ulster-American people, which they became, between the years 1717 to 1782. It is a story of hardship and adventure but, most importantly, a story of the fight for human liberty. America's revolution owed much to its Ulster heritage and the 300,000 people who left this land for the New World in the eighteenth century.']. A very good copy. IRISH
