Born Fighting: The Scots-Irish

Born Fighting: The Scots-Irish is based on a book by American politician and author James "Jim" Webb. It describes the history of the Scots-Irish ethnic group, summarizing their Scottish roots and time in Ulster before entering a more elaborate narrative of their time in the United States of America.

Webb describes what he considers to be their inherent characteristics, such as their senses of militarism, independence and staunch opposition to adversaries. He notes their roles in the creation of country music and the Bible Belt.
