This is the story of the forgotten role of the 200,000 Irish men and women who were involved in the US Civil War. Including the story of James Shields, who challenged Abraham Lincoln to a duel in Illinois before the war even began, to James O'Beirne, whose job it was to hunt Lincoln's assassin. What emerges is a picture of gallantry, sacrifice and immense bravery.
