Many Amherst families are Scots-Irish or have Scots-Irish connections. James Webb's book "Born Fighting" traces the Scots- Irish from Roman times to the present. You will particularly appreciate his discussion of their settlement in America and you will recognize the culture they gave us. Webb is one of us. Some of his early ancestors are buried about two miles from Natural Bridge His book is enjoyable and educational. Recommended.

Where would we be able to find this book?
