#OnThisDay 1822 Confederate Colonel James Hagan was born in Tyrone. Although he commanded a brigade in the Civil War, he was never officially promoted to Brigadier General. His pre-war fortune was converted to Confederate money so he was penniless after the war.

Hi,
I'm David, I'm from Ireland. I am an avid fan of history. I have my B.A. in History, my M.A. in Military History and Strategic Studies,a Post Qualification Diploma in History and I've been teaching History for five years now.
I wanted to create a podcast that examines, in great detail, major Irish battles and battles allover the world in various wars that Irish people played a significant part in.
Hope you enjoy.
