One thought on “This Week on Dispatches: Matthew Skic on “Cost of Revolution, The Life and Death of an Irish Soldier”

  • “Cost of Revolution, The Life and Death of an Irish Soldier” is a marvelous exhibition that should not be missed. One of the best things I’ve seen on the American Revolution. The assemblage of paintings, documents and artifacts is remarkable. I very much appreciated the British point of view and the connections between the Revolution and the quest for freedom in Ireland.
