The Strife of Ascendancy: Of People and Rulers - Paperback

by Donna Fletcher Crow (Author)

Sorely burdened by the strife in Belfast in 1996, American Mary Hamilton searches deeper to understand the tangled roots of the troubles that continued to tear this land apart, as they had for so many generations. Her hopes for success with the youth at the reconciliation center had been shattered, but somehow there had to be an effective way to work for peace.
Likewise, in 1683, the desperately ill Janet Lanark's agony increases as she watches her son and husband feud between themselves, and then march off to war in response to King Billy's call to arms as troops mass on the Banks of the Boyne.
