5.0 out of 5 stars Hell on Earth, 27 Aug 2008
By Oliver Burns "ard mhacha" (Lurgan Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is one of the most harrowing books I have read for years. Sean O`Callaghan is to be thanked for bringing this history to light.
Anyone from England reading this would have a re-think on their countrys history, no wonder this horror was hidden, not so in Ireland, this was featured in an Armagh history Annual many years ago.
This was only one episode of Englands rule in Ireland throughout the centuries, this book should be included in every school library in Britain.

3.0 out of 5 stars Hidden History, 4 Dec 2002
By C. Salter "Colin Salter" (Edinburgh) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Cromwell's solution to the Irish problem seems to have been an attempt to simply remove the local inhabitants, by transporting them to work in slavery on the sugar plantations of the West Indies. The author has painstakingly unearthed a really shameful episode of the English history in Ireland - primary historical records are understandably rare and frequently uncatalogued - and traced its fascinating human consequences in present-day Barbados. This is a journalistic rather than an academic work. O'Farrell is far from dispassionate about his subject, which in my view occasionally clouds his judgement; and he dwells a little too long occasionally on the details of brutality and cruelty. But it is his very passion which brings this history to light and life. A fascinating historical discovery for me.
