Description

This book focuses on the intersection between the assimilation of the Irish into American life and the emergence of an American popular culture, which took place at the same historical moment in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It investigates the primary elements of early American popular culture-pulp fiction, comic strips, professional sports, music recordings, stage shows, radio plays, early film, and board games-and uncovers the entanglements these segments had with the development of Irish-American identity.
