The Irish Revolution - TV show

'The Irish Revolution' has just been broadcast on Ireland's state broadcaster, RTE. This three part tv series is based on the award-winning book, The Atlas of the Irish Revolution, which was published by Cork University Press.

As a contributor to the Atlas, I was invited to attend a reception and a preview screening of programme no 2 in the Cork Opera House. I was very impressed by the programme, which was really put together well.

It presents all the facts about this turbulent time in Irish and world history and it does so with insights from some of the best-informed historians of today with archival footage and stunning photography of the Irish landscape. Check it out for yourself on the RTE Player.
