Ireland before the conquest, told by an exile. Thomas D'Arcy McGee opens his popular history with the earliest peoples, the coming of the Gael, the high kings, the monastic golden age, and the first Norse raids. He wrote as a patriot who had been driven out, and it shows in the warmth and the grievance both. You will discover a spirited national history from a man who later helped found Canada. Ireland's long memory. Press play and begin.
