Murder, Mutiny and Mayhem: The Blackest-Hearted Villains from Irish History

The Irish are often thought of as a nation of missionaries, explorers, freedom fighters, artists, and writers. But for every Tom Crean or Bernardo O'Higgins, there is a Captain William Cotter or Antoine Walsh wreaking havoc around the world. This dramatic book explores the most obscure and unbelievable stories of the Irish slavers, grave-robbers, duellists, conmen, drug-lords, and killers who wreaked havoc around the world.
