The Irish Rockite Rebellion: Sir Hugh Gough Part 2

<p>This is the second of my short season about the life of Sir Hugh Gough, the Irish officer who was possibly the best British commander of the Peninsular war.</p> <p>In today's episode, I am joined once more by Dr Chris Brice to talk about Gough's command during the Rockite rebellion of 1821-24 in Ireland.</p> <p>This is not a deep dive into the politics - simply a look at Gough and his performance.</p> <p>Chris has written a book on the life of Gough that can be purchased via helion.co.uk - put in the code LION2020 at checkout for a 20% discount (limited time only).</p> <p>If you are interested in the Zulu War, then please sign up for my mailing list to receive my free book on the subject: <a href='http://www.redcoathistory.com'>www.redcoathistory.com </a></p> <p>If you are very generous, you can also buy me a coffee and help support the channel via</p> <p><a href='https://ko-fi.com/redcoathistory'>https://ko-fi.com/redcoathistory</a></p>
