Patrick Coleman, Kaikōtui | Academic Programme Partner at Te Whare Wānaka o Aoraki | Lincoln University, New Zealand, holds a PhD in History from the University of Otago and has previously published on other aspects of the Orange Order.

This book breaks much new ground in the scrutiny of under-researched aspects of Orangeism, and it does so in a valuable comparative and transnational framework. Many new thought-provoking perspectives are provided on the Orange movement across the British Isles, North America, Australasia and Africa. It is a major contribution to scholarship on the subject.
