In 1981 Dr. Thomas Sowell's Ethnic America was published. Its purpose was to track each of the ethnic groups that had emigrated to the Unites States, under what circumstances they had come, and what methods they had used to integrate and to succeed in their new country.
It is a book that should be required reading before any student can graduate from a United States high school. It explains who and why we are, and provides formulas for personal family success.
Galveston's Dundee family began their citizenship into America as Irish emigrants - a self-proclaimed hard living, beer drinking, fist-fighting, hard labor bunch. Each one carved out a little more of a piece of the U.S. Cultural Action, and the accrual has brought them to where they are today.
George Benjamin Dundee, Ph.D., has just earned his doctorate in Physics, and because of his
mathematical and critical reasoning skills, has been hired by the prestigious Canadian financial firm FINCAP in Vancouver.
This family's story of how it worked and molded its members' fit into the United States would be a great update for Dr. Sowell's chapter on the Irish Americans.
