Summary | "Ireland under the Stuarts and During the Interregnum, Vol. 2 (of 3), 1642-1660" by Richard Bagwell is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This volume continues the in-depth exploration of Ireland’s tumultuous political and military landscape during the 17th century, specifically from the era of the Stuart monarchs to the time of the Commonwealth under Oliver Cromwell. The book focuses on various factions, rebellions, and battles, detailing the struggle for power among the Irish, English, and Scots during a period marked by conflict and unrest. The opening of this volume introduces readers to the unfolding chaos in Ireland during the early 1640s as rebellion spreads rapidly across provinces like Munster and Connaught. It recounts the actions of key figures such as Lord President St. Leger and the various lords and insurgents embroiled in the conflict. The narrative illustrates the disorderly retreats, skirmishes, and wavering loyalties amidst the backdrop of political maneuverings and military engagements, setting the stage for the deeper exploration of the Irish rebellion and its consequences that follow in the text.
