Kinsale, Ireland: Christmas Eve, 1601 As thunder crashes and lightning rakes the sky, three very different commanders line up for a battle that will decide the fate of a nation. General Juan del Águila has been sprung from a prison cell to command the last great Spanish Armada. Its mission: to seize a bridgehead in Queen Elizabeth's territory and hold it. Facing him is Charles Blount, a brilliant English strategist whose career is also under a cloud. His affair with a married woman edged him into a treasonous conspiracy – and brought him to within a hair’s breadth of the gallows. Meanwhile, Irish insurgent Hugh O’Neill knows that this is his final chance to drive the English out of Ireland. For each man, this is the last throw of the dice. Tomorrow they will be either heroes – or has-beens. These colourful commanders come alive in this true-life story of courage and endurance, of bitterness and betrayal, and of intrigue at the highest levels in the courts of England and Spain. Praise for The Stolen Village '...a harrowing tale that sheds light on the little-known trade in white slaves ... a fascinating exploration of a forgotten chapter of British and European history' Giles Milton - BBC History Magazine

The occupation of the Irish port of Kinsale by Spanish forces in 1601 was the last attempt by Spain to prove itself in the long sea war with England which had lasted since 1585. While its eventual failure damaged little more than Spanish pride, it was an event of significance to all of Europe as the

In the aftermath of the Battle of Kinsale in 1601 as many as 10,000 Irish emigrated from Ireland to Galicia in the north-west of Spain, and to the Spanish court, first in Valladolid and then in Madrid. Between 1601 and 1608 the brunt of this immigration fell on La Coruna in Galicia whichbecame a virtual encampment of starving homeless Irish nobles, soldiers, women, children, elderly and poor. This is the story of that community and how they adapted to their new circumstances.This original work examines the relationship of one foreign minority to Galician society and to the Spanish crown. It is the story of what happens to foreign immigrants on arrival in an early-modern state, and examines what were the dynamics of cultural contact, integration, acculturation andassimilation.It applies sociological and anthropological advances to the study of one community across a wide range of socio-cultural aspects including family structure, literacy, material culture, the acquisition of honours, religious sentiment, and social ascent. It is aimed primarily at an academic audiencein the field of Irish studies, although it will also be of relevance for the wider public especially in the area of Irish emigration. It will also be very relevant to those working in the fields of the acculturation and assimilation of foreign minorities in both early-modern and present-dayEurope.
