Trade Review
"John Donoghue's book is powerfully and beautifully written. He is a gifted writer with an impressive ability to recreate the poignancy and drama of the Atlantic world of the seventeenth century, and Fire under the Ashes is the best depiction that I have read of the multiple strands of republicanism that developed, emerged, and circulated in the 1630s." (Alison Games, author of The Web of Empire: English Cosmopolitans in an Age of Expansion, 1560-1660)"
