Queen Elizabeth's bloody rule over Ireland is examined in this "richly-textured, impressively researched and powerfully involving" history (Roy Foster, author of Modern Ireland, 1600-1972).
England's violent subjugation of Ireland in the sixteenth century under Queen Elizabeth I was one of the most consequential chapters in the long, tumultuous relationship between the two countries. In this engaging and scholarly history, James C. Roy tells the story of revolt, suppression, atrocities, and genocide in the first colonial "failed state".
At the time, Ireland was viewed as a peripheral theater, a haven for Catholic heretics, and a potential "back door" for foreign invasions. Tormented by such fears, lord deputies sent by the queen reacted with an iron hand. These men and their subordinates-including great writers such as Edmund spencer and Walter Raleigh-would gather in salons to pore over the "Irish Question". But such deliberations were rewarded by no final triumph, only debilitating warfare that stretched across Elizabeth's long rule.
