#OnThisDay 1919 Sinn Féin TD Robert Barton (middle) escaped from Mountjoy Prison. Before he left, Barton left a note for the Warden; “I am about to make an escape from your hospitality. If I escape, well and good”.
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.
