Ireland is inarguably a beautiful, enchanted place. But its history is more turbulent, fascinating, and terrible than any other. From the first English presence in Ireland in the twelfth century, through siege, rebellion, and civil war, to Irish ascendancy, home rule, and the present-day Troubles, bestselling author Paul Johnson tells, with remarkable clarity and concision, the compelling story of this most remarkable island.

Critic Reviews

“A lively, intelligent, sometimes provocative but always stimulating account of Ireland from the twelfth century to our own.”

(Sunday Telegraph (London))

“Paul Johnson’s book is lively, well-informed and often provocative…invasion, rebellion and persecution wash down the centuries, lit up by vivid contemporary documents.”

(London Review of Books)

“Provide[s] all the highlights of Irish hisstory…useful and informative.”

(Irish Echo)

“Reader [McCaddon] brings listeners closer to an understanding of the complexity of the problems in Ireland…[McCaddon’s] reading is precise.”
