#OnThisDay 1868 Fenian Michael Barrett became the last man to be publicly executed in Britain. Barrett was tried for his role in the Clerkenwell Jail Bombing, even though he was in Glasgow at the time & a witness known for supplying false testimonies was used.
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.
