The book tells the story of Thomas Blood, a notorious Irishman who attempted to steal the Crown Jewels of England from the Tower of London in 1671. The book provides a detailed account of Blood's life, including his early years in Ireland, his time as a soldier in the English Civil War, and his various schemes and plots throughout his life. The author also explores the political and social context of Blood's time, including the tensions between England and Ireland, and the role of the monarchy and the Tower of London in English society.
