Owen Roe O Neill returns

In the summer of 1642, a ship touched the Donegal coast at Castledoe. It wasn’t carrying a king, or a prince, or some shining saviour with a crown in his luggage. It carried something more dangerous. A veteran officer—Spanish-trained, battle-hardened, and utterly convinced that Ulster could be clawed back from the ruins of conquest. His name was Owen Roe O’Neill—Eoghan Ruadh O’Neill—“Red Owen.” And he didn’t come home to make peace. He came home to win.
