TALK WILL FOCUS ON SCOTTISH ROLE IN EASTER RISING

As a precursor to the AGM of the Celtic League which gets under way over Easter Weekend and marks the Centenary of the Easter Rising there will be a talk on Thursday 24th by Author and Historian Stephen Coyle on role Scottish Republicans played in the Rising (see poster).
