Very interest documentary! Good research and Music. Well done! More please!

Is there part 3? After he left the Imperial Hotel....on to the Munster Arms in Bandon...then onto Béal na mBláth? Maybe then the Journey back to Dublin....from Cobh on a steam boat?

I actually drove the route from Bandon to Béal na mBláth...and just like Collins...had to stop to ask directions.

Thank you. I'll have to get around to a part 3 and a part 4 at some stage, I did these a while back and unfortunately college and stuff got in the way, so I'd have to dig out all my research and such and refresh myself.

What a gorgeous vid. Thank you showing us the way he took to his final sacrifice.

There will never be a man so great again.

I have really enjoyed watching your videos dedicated to Michael Collins.

My shortcomings on the subject (I am French) are important ...

Is it normal that in Part 2, the background remains black from 6'30 while the background music continues to 8'25? If yes, exist a part 3? I would like to know the end of that terrible day.

Thank you
