Klappentext A revisionist account of Irish history under the Tudors. Zusammenfassung This book offers a fundamental critique of conventional views of sixteenth-century Irish history. It argues that reform rather than conquest was the aim of Tudor policy-makers! but shows that immense difficulties forced them to make administrative innovations which contradicted their original policy.
