The American Presence In Ulster

This book tells the story of the link between Ulster and the United States and presents the first general history of the U.S. Consulate in Belfast. While many historians have written about the impact of Ulster on the United States, this book also highlights the profound impact the United States has had on Ulster. The history of the Consulate General provides a unifying theme in this story, and the rich resources of the U.S. State Department and the Public Records Office of Northern Ireland make possible a unique view of both the culture and commerce of the province and also the growth of the Consular Service. --from publisher description.

First sentence: "Three years ago, I pledged that if you chose peace Americans would walk with you," President Bill Clinton told a cheering audience at Armagh at the close of an exhausting day in September 1998.
