A fascinating investigation the lives of four priest hunters - Sean
na Sagart, Edward Tyrrell, Barry Lowe and John Garzia. Ireland in
the aftermath of Cromwell - during this period Catholicism and
Irish nationalism became inexorably linked and priests were
outlawed. The Priest Hunters shines a light on these men who hunted
them. Sean naSagart was Irishman who was been condemned to death
for horse stealing but was reprieved on condition he become a
priest hunter. Edward Tyrrell was an English mercenary driven
solely by greed. Barry Lowe indulged in such acts as tying a priest
behind his horse and dragging him through the brush. John Garzia,
who had fled the Spanish Inquisition, arrived in Ireland and
evidently sought revenge hunting down priests. An incredible
account of some of the most hated men in Ireland.
