The comprehensive defeat of the Jacobite Irish in the Williamite conflict, a component within the pan-European Nine Years' War, prevented the exiled James II from regaining his English throne, ended realistic prospects of a Stuart restoration and partially secured the new regime of King William III and Queen Mary created by the Glorious Revolution. The principal events - the Siege of Londonderry, the Battles of the Boyne and Aughrim, and the two Sieges and Treaty of Limerick - have subsequently become totems around which opposing constructions of Irish history have been erected. Childs argues that the struggle was typical of the late-seventeenth century, principally decided by economic resources and attrition in which the 'small war' comprising patrols, raids, occupation of captured regions by small garrisons, police actions against irregulars and attacks on supply lines was more significant in determining the outcome than the set-piece battles and sieges.

William III's defeat of James II's Catholic army at the Battle of the Boyne on 1 July 1690 ended the Stuart dynasty's last hope of survival. It has also been central, together with the siege of Londonderry, to opposing constitutions of Irish history. John Childs gives a clear account of the campaign in all its stages.

Of all the many battles fought in the British Isles, perhaps none has cast such a long shadow at the Battle of the Boyne - William of Orange's triumph over his father-in-law James II in Ireland in 1690. Celebrated by Ulster's Protestants with noisy parades on its July anniversary to this day, the Boyne was the decisive battle in the Williamite War in Ireland which lasted from 1688-91. This book would not find favour with those Protestant marchers since it is written from a strongly Jacobite viewpoint, and centres around the formation of the Irish Brigade who, after their departure from their native island, saw distinguished service as the 'Wild Geese' mercenaries fighting for France. Based on mainly French sources, and illustrated by fine engravings this is a book that will interest all who are keen on the story of the Glorious Revolution and the Jacobites - whatever their political or religious leanings.

Seventeenth-century Europe was a theatre of almost endless rivalry and destruction, where wars of religion and dynastic succession caused devastation. Kingdom Overthrown: The Battle for Ireland, 1688-1691 is a fresh narrative account of the Williamite War, wherein Ireland became an unexpected stage in this European struggle. To the Irish officers who served in both armies, it was a fight for control of land, property, and influence. It was also part of a pan-European war that would have consequences across the continent; it saw the last ever confrontation on a battlefield between two claimants to the English throne, featuring many intense clashes including the siege of Derry and the battles of Aughrim and the Boyne. Providing the necessary historical context following Charles II's rise to power, the book then charts the central phase of the war, details the Williamite victory in Ireland, and outlines the social, political, and cultural consequences of the war. First-hand accounts of the soldiers and officers in both armies - collected from historical manuscript collections, copies of correspondence, and personal memoirs - give life and color to the narrative. Kingdom Overthrown is an accurate and human account of the most destructive conflict ever fought in Ireland. *** "Irish journalist Fitzgibbon has a lively style. Fitzgibbon liberally seasons his account with observations, comments, and references to events from all of Irish history, down to the war for independence and on to the present. While doing so, Fitzgibbon also gives us many little profiles of some of the more prominent actors, including several kings, and a goodly number of soldiers and politicians, such as Patrick Sarsfield, Baron Glinkel, and the Earl of Tyreconnel. This is an excellent work for anyone interested in learning something about the fate of Ireland in the seventeenth century." --The NYMAS Review, Strategy Page, October 2016 Subject: History, Irish Studies, Military Studies]
