On this day in 1867 one of Irelands greatest revolutionaries and most memorable expats died while leading a troop of officers from the Montana militia.
I learned about Meagher and many other Irish historical figures of this time thanks to Thomas Keneally's excellent book "The Great Shame".
A great book for sure
