In this bonus episode, I sit down with Sean Connolly, author of "On Every Tide" a new history of Irish emigration. It is an amazing book that covers the story of the Irish diaspora from the oft-told stories of New York and Boston all the way to New South Wales. I highly recommend the book and you can pick up a copy here: https://www.basicbooks.com/titles/sean-connolly/on-every-tide/9780465093960/#:~:text=In%20On%20Every%20Tide%2C%20Sean,%2C%20Australia%2C%20and%20New%20Zealand.Website: www.westerncivpodcast.comPatreon: www.patreon.com/westerncivpodcastWestern Civ 2.0: www.glow.fm/westernciv

A fast-moving history of the western world from the ancient world to the present day. Examine how the emergence of the western world as a global dominant power was not something that should ever have been taken for granted. This podcast traces the development of western civilization starting in the ancient Near East, through Greece and Rome, past the collapse of the Western Roman Empire into the Dark Ages, and then follows European and, ultimately, American history as the western world moved into a dominant world position.
