Viac o knihe
In 1646, the Englishman, Sir John Temple published his book, History of the Horrid Rebellion in Ireland, an apparently factual account of the Irish uprising 5 years earlier. The book contained gruesome and lurid accounts of how Protestants in Ireland were murdered, tortured and driven from their homes by the Irish. Avenging this genocide was a major motivating force for Oliver Cromwell when he brought his army to Ireland in 1649, believing the Irish to be barbarous and bloodthirsty. Seen through the eyes of the Uniacke family - one of the wealthiest land-owning families in East Cork - Cromwell's Revenge narrates the startling and fascinating events of the time.
