The book challenges the perception of early modern Ireland as merely a passive participant in British colonial expansion. Instead, it highlights Ireland's active involvement in the establishment and growth of the first British Empire, particularly through its contributions to finance and defense. McGrath's argument repositions Ireland as a significant player in the dynamics of empire-building, offering a fresh perspective on its historical role.
