Today marks 100 years since the ambush and subsequent death of Michael Collins. He is a fascinating study and figure in Irish history.
One has to wonder what would have become of Ireland and Irish independence had he not been killed.
As a history buff (I am certainly no expert), I hope this will trigger a renewed study of his life and the principles that he stood for.
Have a great day, everyone!!
