The Cromwellian Settlement of Ireland is a historical book written by John P. Prendergast that provides a detailed account of the English conquest and colonization of Ireland during the 17th century. The book focuses on the period of Oliver Cromwell's rule in Ireland, from 1649 to 1653, and the subsequent settlement of the country by English settlers.Prendergast's book analyzes the political, social, and economic factors that led to the Cromwellian conquest, including the religious conflicts between Catholics and Protestants, the tensions between Irish natives and English settlers, and the strategic importance of Ireland to the English Crown. The author also delves into the military tactics and strategies employed by Cromwell and his army, as well as the atrocities committed against the Irish population during the conquest.The second half of the book focuses on the aftermath of the Cromwellian conquest, including the mass deportation of Irish natives to the West Indies, the redistribution of land to English settlers, and the impact of these events on Irish society and culture. Prendergast also examines the legal and political structures put in place by the English government to control Ireland, including the establishment of the Protestant Ascendancy and the Penal Laws.Overall, The Cromwellian Settlement of Ireland is a comprehensive and insightful account of one of the most significant events in Irish history, and provides valuable insights into the ongoing political and cultural struggles in modern-day Ireland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
