Today, we remember him as the loyal courtier and charming explorer who planted the first potato in Ireland and brought tobacco crops to the isle. But his years in Ireland were filled with turmoil, his efforts there ultimately ill-fated. By the time he left Ireland he had helped add another stormy chapter to the long, troubled history between Ireland and England.
