Josephine McGowan was the first member of Cumann na mBan to die in the Revolutionary Period. McGowan fought at Marrowbone Lane during the Rising. In 1918, the DMP baton charged a crowd protesting internment & struck McGowan on the head, killing her. She was 20. #MnáMondays
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.
