    About this ebook

    O'Flaherty V.C., A Recruiting Pamphlet (1915) is a comic one-act play written during World War I by George Bernard Shaw. The plot is about an Irish soldier in the British army returning home after winning the Victoria Cross. The play was written at a time when the British government was attempting to promote recruitment in Ireland, while many Irish republicans expressed opposition to a war to defend the British Empire.

      The Queen Alone: How Prince Philip’s Death Will Change The Monarchy

      The first mention of Prince Philip in this newspaper came with the announcement of his engagement to the future queen on 13 July, 1947. It is a measure of the privacy that the royals then enjoyed that no gossip or rumour of their years of courtship h

      The Armada Victory – The Truth

      Jun 29, 2022

      So many myths and stories have attached themselves to the Spanish Armada, like barnacles to the hull of a galley, that we feel we know it almost by association. The whole tale may be hazy in our minds, but there are flashes. The Armada is a portrait

      Prince Philip 1921 – 2021

      Apr 18, 2021

      It wouldn’t be a stretch to call the Duke of Edinburgh a proto-feminist. Despite being the embodiment of that Kipling-esque idyll, a man’s man, he married a woman to whom he would always be subordinate in the eyes of the world. Yet he could never be
