ISBN: 9780198221548.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this study of Anglo-Norman intervention in Ireland during the reign of Henry II (1154-89), Flanagan explores the origins of the political link between Ireland and the English crown. She focuses on the reasons why Diarmait Mac Murchada, the exiled king of Leinster, hired Anglo-Norman mercenaries to help him regain his kingdom; why Anglo-Norman settlers from South Wales accepted his offer of employment in Ireland; and why this in turn provoked a reaction from King Henry II, who intervened in person in Ireland in 1171-72. Drawing on evidence from both 12th-century Irish and Anglo-Norman sources, Flanagan bridges the artificial division between the pre-Norman and post-Norman periods in Ireland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44933975572533,"sku":"ByrdShop_0198221541","price":238.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780198221548_94e46412-35c3-469b-afdd-d41993d0a66b.jpg?v=1787125485","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/irish-society-anglonorman-settlers-angevin-kingship-interactions-in-ireland-in-the-late-twelfth-century-oxford-historical-monographs-9780198221548","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
