The Channel Islands, primarily Guernsey and Jersey, contributed greatly to the influx of immigrants to the American colonies and the young United States. This work contains background information on the Islands and Islanders, including maps, lists of Island surnames by state, etc., but the bulk of the work is a genealogical dictionary identifying thousands of known (or probable) Channel Island immigrants to America, and some of their descendants.

There is also a section with brief sketches of people well-known in American history who had Channel Island roots: Sir Edmund Andros, John Bertram (merchant), General Sir Isaac Brock, the Cabots of Boston, Sir George Carteret, Buffalo Bill Cody, Philippe Langlois (Phillip English), Deming Jarves, Lillie Langtry, William N. Le Page (remember his glue?), John Wesley Masury (paint manufacturer), Nathaniel Messerve (ship builder), Paul Revere, Henry David Thoreau.

This is a reprint of the 1984 edition, updated with six pages of corrections and additions. Pages numbered consecutive through volumes. An alphabetical listing of surname index at end of volume 2 is not page numbered.
