Reviews
'This impressive first book draws heavily on a rich range of archival
research...Powell...assesses British governmental policy towards Ireland in the period 1750-83, placing it in the valuable context of imperial crisis and policy...Aside from the great value of his careful account, Powell is much to be congratulated on his imperial contextualization of Irish developments.' - Jeremy Black, Department of History, University of Exeter, Reviewed for H-Albion@h-net
'A convincing account of Anglo-Irish relations set in the wider context of the imperial crisis, which saw Britain lose her American colonies and be gripped by the fear of 'independency' in her oldest colony nearer to home.' - Eoin Magennis, author of The Irish Political System, 1740-1765 and co-editor of Crowds in Ireland, 1720-1920
