Scots-Irish Migration was informative but I have mixed feelings about all the information and the format of the book. I think the title doesn't exactly cover all Scots-Irish Migration goes over. The book is split up into different sections (in my opinion): the historical explanation of the term Scots-Irish, Scots-Irish Loyalists, Black Loyalists, Scots-Irish and Presbyterianism, Architecture, and Scots-Irish names. I felt there wasn't enough emphasis in some sections on the Scots-Irish and some of the content did not need to be in Scots-Irish Migration ; why are we covering Black Loyalists ?? That has nothing to do with the main topic and was distracting from the subject. I liked the background information about how the term "Scots-Irish" came into place but transition into the how that affected the Bahamas was slow. Tinker covers Bahamian settlers and their struggles before the Scots-Irish even got to The Bahamas; I have no problem with background information but he makes this an entire chapter... Tinker basically cover all the British Loyalists moving to The Bahamas and not the specific group he claims to be covering. He kind of generalized all the Loyalists by making it seem like they all had been in the colonies (America) for a long time as the different waves of Scots-Irish immigrants from Britain had come over from the very beginning of the colonies. The architecture chapter was informative but I do not think it really added to the topic. My favorite part of Scots-Irish Migration was the names; all the last names the Scots-Irish brought with them that can be seen in Bahamian society today. Names like Nairn, Gibson, Boyd, Christie, Farquarson, Lockhart, Moncur etc. The names show just how clearly the Scots-Irish pervaded Bahamian society and that shows their lasting influence. All of the Scots-Irish Migration was well written and informative but disjointed.
