Cajun Scot suggested this book to me some time ago, I bought it, read it and really enjoyed the book. It a great history of the "Ulster Scots" and the Plantations in Northern Ireland. The Ulster Scots lived in Northern Ireland but were actually of Scot's descent.

Cajun Scot can you give the entire title of this book? I am at work and don't have access to my reference bookshelf at the moment.
"The Scotch-Irish: A social history" by James Leyburn. For a book written in the 1960's, it holds up very well. A good starting point.
