Focusing on the Popish Plot of 1678, this study explores how fears of an Irish Catholic rebellion were exploited by England's Protestant elite. The narrative delves into the political machinations aimed at preventing the Catholic Duke of York from ascending to the throne, highlighting the tensions between the Protestant minority and the Catholic majority in Ireland. Through this lens, the book examines the interplay of religion, power, and manipulation in a pivotal moment of British history.
