Seventeenth-Century Ireland by Raymond Gillespie
Published October 2006. Subtitle: War of Religions. 350 pages. Most surveys of 17thcentury Ireland approach the period using war, conquest, plantation and colonialisation as their organising themes. This book tries to understand the century in a differe nt way. The author argues that the 17thc was an uniquely creative moment in Ireland's history as the various social and political groups within the country tried to forge new compromises. He also shows how and why they failed to do so.

Green Tears for Hecuba by Patrick Twohig
The time of the Black-and-Tans is the main theme in this work.

An important feature of this work is the two authoritative appendices: one, giving an estimate of all books on the subject to date; the other, a chronology of events from Easter, 1916 to the Truce of 1921.
