- Irish Clock Makers in America

Bag om Passing Time Across the Water

For centuries the United States has been a haven for the Irish. Passing Time Across the Water: Irish Clock Makers in America by Killian Robinson tells the stories of the men who left their homeland. Some moved to pursue better opportunities for themselves and their families, some left due to wanderlust, and others left to stay one step ahead of the law. They settled across the country from Massachusetts to Missouri. By using U.S. Census records, account books, newspaper articles, advertisements, and obituaries, Robinson brings to life the stories of watch and clock makers who called the United States home.
