De Valera in America Part 5 | Aug - Dec 1920 - Episode 34

While de Valera had plans to remain on in the United States into 1921, his stay came to an end in December. By then he had moved against the Friends of Irish Freedom and created a new organisation, though he had left before it grew to over 700,000 members. He would leave as quietly has he had arrived, but he and the Irish Delegation had done much to promote Ireland's cause, as well as doing much to unbalance Irish-America.

    What would one of these videos be without a mistake? Collins was 30, not 29, when he became Acting-President of Dáil Éireann.

    Was he Michael Fitzpatrick or Michael Fitzgerald? The picture and commentary differ.

    Hello, I very much enjoy your videos and was just wondering if you would ever go on armchair history TV as there are many history youtubers including Irish revolution.

    Thanks for checking out the channel. I've watched a few of Armchair Historians videos, I have a few things planned for the year ahead so might look at getting in touch with other channels.
