Grace O'Malley, better known in Ireland as Granuaile, was a pirate queen infesting the coast of Eirinn and further afield in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. Powerful on both land and sea, she commanded a large fleet of ships as well as leading her own army into battle.
This fascinating book from Michael Sheane explores the reality behind the myths and legends that have been told about O'Malley - a story that is no less amazing once fact becomes separated from fiction. From her earliest days learning the ways of the sea to her death in the same year as England's Queen Elizabeth, this book shines a spotlight on the incredible life of GrĂ¡inne Mhaol, as she is still known as in Irish Folklore to this day.
