'This volume represents a substantial addition to our knowledge of Cromwell and the period... Above all, it places Cromwell in his context, his position within a wider military machine, his influence on Ireland after his return to England, and it helps to understand his role in the collective memory.'Coleman A. Dennehy, The Seventeenth Century 'This is a book about the physical and mental worlds within which Cromwell operated in his nine months in Ireland... it is a rich and well-written compendium.'John Morrill, Cromwelliana '[Cromwell and Ireland: New Perspectives] represents a tangible advance on the contrasting and incompatible depictions of the Cromwellian era as years of unrelenting repression or years of reform ... the volume helps to explain the enduring fascination with a man who was convinced he was doing God's work.' James Kelly, Studia Hibernia ‘[Cromwell and Ireland] does indeed offer important new perspectives… Cromwell’s legacy in Ireland is a complicated one, and the nuanced insights offered here will go a long way to complicating interpretations, increasing understanding, and generating further debate. Students and scholars alike will find many new and provocative insights in this collection.’ John Patrick Montaño, Journal of British Studies
