#OnThisDay 1920 English spy & criminal Frank Digby Hardy was run out of Dublin. Hardy, who hoped to catch Michael Collins & win the £10,000 reward on Collins’ head, was found out when he leaked his plan to Arthur Griffith at a meeting intently filled with international reporters. He was allowed to leave Ireland unharmed. It was a major propaganda victory for the Irish Republicans.

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.
