The Curse & Scourge of All Irishmen

From the privileged world of the Luttrells of Luttrellstown to the blood-soaked politics of rebellion and repression, this book dissects the life and career of Henry Lawes Luttrell, Earl of Carhampton — a man whose name became synonymous with coercion, cruelty, and colonial violence. Rising through patronage and privilege, Luttrell forged his career not through statesmanship, but through intimidation, force, and ruthless loyalty to imperial authority.
