This book offers a deep dive into the historical question of whether Pope Adrian IV granted Ireland to King Henry II of England in the 12th century. The author reviews the historical evidence, including the famous papal bull Laudabiliter, and examines the motivations and possible consequences of such a grant. The author argues that the question of the bull's authenticity and the nature of the grant are separate issues, and that the bull may be a forgery while the grant itself may still have occurred. By separating these two questions, the book sheds new light on a complex and controversial topic.
