#OnThisDay 1875 Michael “The” O’Rahilly, founding member & Director of Arms of the Irish Volunteers, was born in Kerry. O’Rahilly was opposed to the Rising but said “I’ve helped to wind up the clock, I might as well hear it strike!” He died during the fighting.
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.
