The Cromwellian Settlement of Ireland by John P. Prendergast is a comprehensive historical account of the English colonization of Ireland during the mid-17th century. The book explores the political, social, and economic impact of the Cromwellian conquest of Ireland, which resulted in the dispossession of the native Irish population and the establishment of English rule. Prendergast's work provides a detailed analysis of the key events and figures involved in the settlement, including Oliver Cromwell and his army, as well as the Irish leaders who opposed them. The author examines the various strategies employed by the English to subjugate the Irish, including military force, land confiscation, and the imposition of new laws and customs. The book also delves into the cultural and religious clashes that arose during this period, as well as the long-term consequences of the settlement for both Ireland and England. Prendergast draws on a wide range of primary sources, including official records, letters, and contemporary accounts, to provide a nuanced and detailed perspective on this pivotal moment in Irish history. Overall, The Cromwellian Settlement of Ireland is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of Ireland, English colonialism, or the complex relationship between these two nations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
