#OnThisDay 1916 Thomas MacDonagh was executed. His last letter read:
“…that in all my acts, all the acts for which I have been arraigned. I have been actuated by one motive only, the love of my country and the desire to make her a sovereign, independent state.”

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.
