#OnThisDay 1616 Hugh O’Neill the Earl of Tyrone died in Rome. His fight against the English Crown during the Nine Years War was all but lost at the Battle of Kinsale in 1601. He left Ireland at the ‘Flight of the Earls’, hoping to return to Ireland with an army. #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.
