Thanks for posting this. I'm from Ireland and I did my secondary school history project on the 1863 NYC draft riots and Irish gangs involved.

@donnacha90 Glad I could help with your history projects.

I never thought that I'd ever see Daniel Day-Lewis look the way he does in this program. He really did deserve the Academy Award for that role along with his role in "There Will Be Blood". Just a side note I guess. Great stuff about the history of New York though.

And all this time I thought cop was short for "constable on patrol".

Original forefighters of new york, what a bunch of real heroes. Makes me wonder what Denis Leary and Peter Tolan think of that lil bit of history.

lol so even though its a pro irish movie, the mayor that was Irish after Tweed was even worse, so worse that he forced a decision from the country about NY.

Boss Tweed, the father of modern American politics.
