#OnThisDay 1862 Irish men faced each other at the Battle of Gaines’ Mill. The Irish Brigade fought against its Confederate enemy, which contained the Irish 6th Louisiana. The Irish Brigade fought a nasty rear guard action but the day was for the Confederates. #Ireland #History

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.
