#OnThisDay 1922 Erskine Childers, the man who used his personal yacht, the Asgard, to smuggle guns into Howth in 1914 was arrested by Free State soldiers for possession of a pistol. The gun was a gift from Michael Collins, the head of the Provisional Government! #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.
