In this remarkable piece of historical detective work, Peter Marshall sets out to discover the intriguing links between sightings of the ghost of an old woman in the small English coastal town of Minehead in the 1630s and the hanging of a disgraced Protestant bishop in Dublin several years later.
...an engaging and ambitious work... that will appeal to the divergent fields of academic history and broader reading without either boring the academic or patronizing the general reader... a remarkable achievement... thought-provoking and enjoyable.
