As we honour in song and in story... "Kilmichael Ambush - a story of a century" takes a fresh look at the story of the Kilmichael Ambush in West Cork 100 years later. We analyse the ambush in detail with expert views by historians and unique accounts by locals guests. Of particular note are the Fr Chisholm recordings with Jack O Sullivan (Section 2) and Ned Young (Section 3) - veterans of the ambush, which takes the viewer right into the heart of the ambush and what happened on that fateful day on the 28th of November 1920.
