Tim Conroy, the man from Ballincollig, saving the world and his wife and Stalin from the menace of Japan, 1883-1935

Was 1930s Japan specialist Tim Conroy a blinkered fantasist or one of the few prewar Japan watchers brave enough to take on the might of

This talk has been prepared by historian Dr Peter O'Connor (an Lóthar and formerly of Japan) especially for Heritage Iveragh on the occasion of our AGM on 12 December 2024. It will 'premier' at 8pm on Thursday night - the AGM runs from 7.15-8pm.

All welcome
