"The early seventeenth century in Ireland was a time of great upheaval and change, no more so than in Cavan. Left reeling from the recent Nine Years War, the county and its elite were left to contend with the effects of the Ulster Plantation. This book examines the plantation and reformation process attempted in Cavan at this time, and the envy and distrust which festered between the British settlers and Gaelic Irish as a result. The tension between both communities eventually exploded into the open during the 1641 rising, which resulted in chaos and loss of property and life in Cavan, until the county's total capitulation into Cromwell's hands in 1653."--BOOK JACKET.Brendan Scott is the author of 'Cavan 1609-1653: Plantation, War and Religion (Maynooth Studies in Local History)', published 2007 under ISBN 9781846820625 and ISBN 1846820626.
