Two for one day. Somehow I forgot to publish yesterday’s post.
First up, another pirate. Okay, so I have a thing for pirates... and nautical history. I read a lot about shipwrecks. It’s a thing.
Anyway, Grace O’Malley. Here’s some links:
Ancient Origins
Twelve Fascinating Facts from The Irish Post
UK National Archives
Second today, Margaret Brown. The Unsinkable Molly Brown, if we want to stick with that nautical theme.
Seriously, she was on the Titanic. Go check her out. She’s been one of my favorite historical figures basically since I heard Debbie Reynold’s sing “Belly Up to the Bar Boys” when I was very small.
