A New History of Ireland is the largest scholarly project in modern Irish history. In 9 volumes, it provides a comprehensive new synthesis of modern scholarship on every aspect of Irish history and prehistory, from the earliest geological and archaeological evidence, through the Middle Ages, down to the present day. Volume VII covers a period of major significance in Ireland's history. It outlines the division of Ireland and the eventual establishment of the Irish Republic. It provides comprehensive coverage of political developments, north and south, as well as offering chapters on the economy, literature in English and Irish, the Irish language, the visual arts, emigration and immigration, and the history of women. The contributors to this volume, all specialists in their field, provide the most comprehensive treatment of these developments of any single-volume survey of twentieth-century Ireland.

Hill went to sea with the British Navy at age 17, retired as rear admiral working in the Ministry of Defense, pursued naval law for a few years, and has been writing naval books since. Here he explores what happened after a British warship captured an enemy warship, a neutral suspected of running contraband, or a privateer, on the high seas. There were plenty of legal procedures to go through, he shows, before the captors saw their prize money. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

This book argues there is a special category of medium powers in the world - powers such as Britain, France, India, Brazil, Japan, perhaps China and others - which have sufficient military power to do something to protect their interests but which are not a match for the superpowers. It indicates that the uneasy role of medium powers, in the middle between the omnipotent superpowers and the virtually powerless small powers, at present ill-defined, should be thought through properly so that medium powers recognise clearly what they can and cannot do, which of their interests they can defend on their own and for which they need a superpower as ally. It surveys the whole range of naval warfare - equipment, operations, organisation and deployment - and discusses how each item should be tailored by the recognition of the position of a medium power. It considers alliances, a key element for medium posers and explores how these should be handled, how tight or loose they should be and what use they may be expected to fulfil.
