Summaries

Historians detail events that led to the partition of Ireland after the close of WWI.

The Road to Partition is expertly made but very much the Idiot's Guide to Irish History, presumably aimed at a British audience who wouldn't know de Valera from da Vinci. Somberly narrated by Michelle Fairley (Catelyn Stark from Game of Thrones), the two episodes recaps the Easter Rising of 1916, the massacre of Ulster regiments at the Somme, the 1918 general election and the brutal years of the War of Independence.—Canon y mus
