This is the first comprehensive study of all the plantations that were attempted in Ireland during the years 1580-1650. It examines the arguments advanced by successive political figures for a plantation policy, and the responses which this policy elicited from different segments of the population in Ireland. The book opens with an analysis of the complete works of Edmund Spenser who was the most articulate ideologue for plantation. The author argues that all subsequent advocates of plantation, ranging from King James VI and I, to Strafford, to Oliver Cromwell, were guided by Spenser's opinions, and that discrepancies between plantation in theory and practice were measured against this yardstick. The book culminates with a close analysis of the 1641 insurrection throughout Ireland, which, it is argued, steeled Cromwell to engage in one last effort to make Ireland British.

Many analyses of Ireland's past and present are couched in colonial terms. For some, it is the only framework for understanding Ireland. Others reject the label. This study evaluates and analyzes the situation.

This book represents an introduction to the history of the English colonization of Ireland from a post-colonial perspective with emphasis given to why writers wrote what they did about the Irish. The language of inferiority used by the English about the Irish was an important element in their colonial mission, used to justify their oppression of their Celtic neighbor and set the stage for a racialized view of the Irish.

Historians often view early modern Ireland as a testing ground for subsequent British colonial adventures further afield. McGrath argues against this passive view, suggesting that Ireland played an enthusiastic role in the establishment and expansion of the first British Empire. He focuses on two key areas of empire-building: finance and defence.
