  • Crummell, or Oliver Cromwell in Ireland

    by Brian Igoe ...
    Oliver Cromwell has been the subject of books, learned journals, less learned articles, TV and radio programmes, countless times. He has had proponents and opponents. He has been revered and reviled, but far too seldom has he been understood. Perhaps the most scholarly of recent books on the subject is that by Dr Micheál Ó Siochrú (you might find it easier to call him Michael Sugrue) who is a ... Read more

    by Brian Igoe ...

That marriage astonishingly for the times, was a love match, far from the norm in those days. Dan was born in 1785 into the family of what was really a smuggler baron.

  • The Ireland Series Book 4 - 19th century

    The Story of Ireland, #4

    by Brian Igoe ...
    Series Book 4 - The Story of Ireland
    This is the fourth in the series of LiteBite Books telling the story of Ireland. It covers the time of the Nineteenth Century, to my mind one of the most stimulating times in Ireland's history. The Great Famine was not in itself, of course, stimulating, but it's results were surprising. The title The Irish in America deserves a book in itself, one book at the very least. Here we just take a ... Read more
