#OnThisDay 1318 Edward Bruce was killed at the Battle of Faughart, Louth by an Irish-Norman army. Bruce, brother to Robert the King of Scotland, was declared by some Irish kings to be the High King of Ireland through his matrilineal line. His claim died with him. #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.
