Reviews
Conway's study is well deserving of a wide readership ... This is a product, first and foremost, of his truly awe-inspiring familiarity with the archival record in Britain, Ireland and America, as a result of which he is able to paint a rich canvas at local as well as at national level ... Nuanced, insightful and exceptionally well written. * Eighteenth Century Ireland *
Widely researched and informative survey. * Contemporary Review *
Stephen Conway has produced an excellent and important book, one that is provocative and wide-ranging. His study is based on a comprehensive survey secondary literature. His research is impeccable, his writing fluent, and his thesis important and subtly argued - all in all, a model of modern scholarship. * Frank Cogliano, The Journal of Military History *
