Episode Notes
This week's programme is the first of two special episodes looking at the American Civil War - from an Irish perspective. Irish soldiers played an important role on both sides of the conflict - a conflict that produced a huge repository of Irish-American songs. We'll hear the stories behind those songs, and how they reflect the Irish experience of the war.
