In the currently available 2014 edition of Archivium Hibernicum, Eduardo de Mesa presents new research on a largely unknown time in the life of Owen Roe O’Neill as a Gaelic military commander in the service of the Hapsburgs in the Spanish Army of Flanders for thirty-six years between 1606 and1642. He uses material from the Spanish archives to describe the challenges facing an Irish infantry captain serving on the continent.

The volume includes 382 pages, with index.
