The Devil from over the Sea. Remembering and Forgetting Oliver Cromwell in Ireland, Hardback/***

This book uncovers the ways in which he was memorialized and sometimes conveniently forgotten from 1660 to 1900, exploring his diverse personae in history writing, religious works, literature, political polemic, folklore, and the landscape.
