#OnThisDay 1914 Nearly 100 British Army officers offer their resignations in what became known as The Curragh Mutiny. This was in protest of the implementation of Home Rule & the possibility of ‘Marching on Ulster’ to enforce it. The British Government could not enforce Home Rule which had been passed through the House of Lords.
A Civil War between Unionists and Nationalists seemed likely.

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.
