""A Popular History of Ireland V2"" is a comprehensive book written by Thomas D'Arcy McGee that explores the history of Ireland. This book is the second volume of the series and covers the period from the early 17th century to the mid-19th century. It provides a detailed account of the political, social, and cultural developments in Ireland during this period.The book starts with the arrival of the English in Ireland and the subsequent colonization of the country. It then covers the various rebellions and uprisings that took place in Ireland, including the 1641 rebellion, the Williamite War, and the 1798 rebellion. The book also explores the impact of the Great Famine on Ireland and the subsequent emigration of Irish people to America.In addition to political and social history, the book also delves into the cultural history of Ireland, including the development of Irish literature, music, and language. It also provides insights into the lives of famous Irish figures such as Daniel O'Connell, Charles Stewart Parnell, and Robert Emmet.Overall, ""A Popular History of Ireland V2"" is an informative and engaging book that provides a comprehensive overview of Ireland's history during a crucial period of its development.Sir Henry Sidney, in writing to his court, had always reported John O'Neil as ""the only strong man in Ireland."" Before his rout at Lough Swilly, he could commonly call into the field 4,000 foot and 1,000 horse; and his two years' revolt cost Elizabeth, in money, about 150,000 pounds sterling ""over and above the cess laid on the country""--besides ""3,500 of her Majesty's soldiers"" slain in battle. The removal of such a leader in the very prime of life was therefore a cause of much congratulation to Sidney and his royal mistress, and as no other ""strong man"" was likely soon to arise, the Deputy now turned with renewed ardour to the task of establishing the Queen's supremacy, in things spiritual as well as temporal.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
