#OnThisDay 1916 Éamonn Ceannt was executed in Kilmainham Gaol. He wrote to his wife;
“I die a noble death for Ireland’s freedom.” He also penned “Ireland has shown she is a nation. This generation can claim to have raised sons as brave as any that went before.”
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.
