Outbreak of the Irish Rebellion of 1641


Book Description

Historians agree that the 1641 Irish rebellion had profound significance outside of Ireland, but Perceval-Maxwell shows in detail how it did so. He considers negotiations between the Irish and English parliaments, how events in Ireland influenced public opinion in both England and Scotland, the delay in sending the Irish army against the Scots, how the Irish rising contributed to the outbreak of the English Civil War, and other factors.
