The Irish Race: In California, And On The Pacific Coast is a historical non-fiction book written by Hugh Quigley and originally published in 1878. The book explores the history and experiences of the Irish people who immigrated to California and the Pacific Coast during the mid-19th century. Quigley discusses the challenges that the Irish faced upon arrival, including discrimination, poverty, and limited job opportunities. He also examines the contributions that the Irish made to the development of California and the Pacific Coast, such as their involvement in the gold rush, the construction of the transcontinental railroad, and the establishment of Catholic institutions. The book provides a comprehensive look at the Irish immigrant experience in California and the Pacific Coast during a pivotal period in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
