British and Irish Emigrants and Exiles in Europe, 1603-1688

David Worthington, Ph.D. (2001) in History, University of Aberdeen, is Lecturer in History at the UHI Millennium Institute, the prospective University of the Highlands and Islands in Scotland. He has published extensively on British and Irish connections with central Europe during the late medieval and early modern periods and is author of Scots in Habsburg Service, 1618-1648 (Brill, 2004)

All those interested in British, Irish and European history in the early modern period, as well as in migration and diaspora history.

"British and Irish Emigrants and Exiles in Europe, 1603-1688, is certainly a useful addition to the historiography of the British and Irish diaspora in the seventeenth century. The editor is to be commended for trying to include England and Wales into a field where the Irish IRSS 35 (2010) 181 and Scots have dominated in recent years."
John Sherry, University of Guelph in IRSS 35 (2010) pp. 179-182
