Thread Name: BS: The Fighting Irish
Subject: RE: BS: The Fighting Irish
Like any conflict now out of living memory, people tend to read "the official memoirs". When you read what school children over here get to read regarding the events in British published text books. As the subject is now on the school curriculum.
Fortunately local schools are glad to avail of my knowledge of Irish history. Always willing to pass on local accounts of those that were there and their views on both both wars.
