Tom Reilly (author)
Tom Reilly (born 1960) is an Irish author and former regional newspaper columnist (''Life of Reilly'', ''Drogheda Independent''), who has written books on Oliver Cromwell and religion, (''Hollow Be Thy Name'') as well as a book based on his own newspaper columns among others. He is currently the manager of Ardgillan Castle, located between Balbriggan and Skerries in Ireland. To date in total, he has published nine books, two of which have been conventionally published, the other six have been self-published. A native of Drogheda, County Louth, Reilly is a director of a local printing company, Burex Manufacturing Ltd. of Dunleer, Louth. He spent most of his working life in the printing and allied trades and is an avid local historian. He set up the Drogheda Heritage Centre along with his wife, Noeleen in 1999 in St Mary's Church of Ireland, Drogheda, the site of Cromwell's entry into the town in 1649. The Centre caused a storm of controversy when Cromwell's death mask was displayed for two months under the slogan 'He's Back! The lowest ebb of the affair was when local protestors, led by the Deputy Mayor of Drogheda, Frank Godfrey daubed tomato juice on the walls of the graveyard surrounding the Centre.' 'Cromwell Was Framed (Ireland 1649)', the first major book from new imprint Chronos Books will appear/has appeared on the bookshelves in 2014. Reilly is an obsessive runner. He has run eleven marathons and has a PB of 37.09 for 10k and 18.12 for 5k. He lived all of his life in Drogheda and still lives there. He is still running five times a week (30 miles) in his mid-fifties. He is married to Noeleen (Crinion) and has two children, Cathy and Eoin.
Reilly's best-known work on Cromwell is the highly contentious tome,
''Cromwell – An Honourable Enemy: The Untold Story of the Cromwellian Invasion of Ireland'' (1999), which holds that Cromwell did not intentionally target civilians during the campaign. He was quoted as stating: ''"Cromwell's entire Irish mission was fought on a purely military basis, and it is to his enormous credit that he never once departed from those parameters."''〔() "Cromwell town apology", Ronan McGreevy. ''The Irish Post Online News Page''. Saturday, 1 May 1999 〕
