Will’s Reviews > The Immortal Irishman: The Irish Revolutionary Who Became an American Hero > Status Update

Bull Run was a bust however with recognition that the Irish Regiment was one of the last fighting and Meagher and his wife's campaigning, an all Irish Brigade is approved and Meagher made Brigadeer General. The fear that Meaghers aristocrat wife would dampen his Irish spirit reverses as she goes full native, throwing off family wealth and devoting much of her own time to the Irish Brigade.

From defending slavery to fighting against it 💪 Meagher gears for the Battle of Bull run with the Union army. The Irish Brigade 🇮🇪 fully embraces dual allegiance to Ireland and The Union. The Fenians will fight in the America's and take the fight home to the British at wars end. 🍀
