Sommario/riassunto

This book examines the health and social challenges faced by Irish immigrants in New York City between 1845 and 1875. Utilizing historical archaeology and ethnographic methods, Meredith B. Linn explores the impact of diseases such as typhus and tuberculosis, as well as work-related injuries, on Irish immigrant communities. The book delves into the stereotypes and prejudices the Irish faced, the cultural practices around healing, and the incorporation of Irish



immigrants into American society. It highlights the interplay between health, labor, housing, and community dynamics in shaping the lives of these immigrants. This study is aimed at historians, archaeologists, and those interested in immigration, public health, and social history.
