A bheatha an Tiriodh 's an Canada gu toiseach a' Chogaidh

Episode 1 of 3

D貌mhnall Meek an t貌ir air sgeul br脿thair a sheanmhar a chaill a bheatha aig Bl脿r Arras 1917. Donald Meek traces the footsteps of his great uncle to Arras, where he died in 1917.

Mar a thuirt an t-Ollamh D貌mhnall Meek, chan eil a seo ach sgeulachd aon saighdear, ach tha iomadach sgeulachd eile mu iomadh saighdear a b'urrainnn innse nam biodh am fiosrachadh ri lorg. Tha D貌mhnall an t貌ir air Iain D貌mhnallach, br脿thair a sheanmhar, saighdear 脿 Tiriodh, a chaidh a mharbhadh aig Bl脿r Arras san Fhraing sa Chiad Chogadh. Tha D貌mhnall fortanach oir bha na litrichean, an leabhar-l脿, na cairtean-posta, a' bh脿rdachd agus na deilbh, a tha a' toirt cnaimh-droma na sge貌il dha, air a thasgadh leis an teaghlach. 'S e buille chruaidh dha-r矛ribh a bha na bh脿s dhan teaghlach - am fear a b' 貌ige, am fear a bha air beatha a dh猫anamh dha fh猫in an Canada, am fear a fhuair cothrom dha sp矛onadh air falbh 's gun e ach deich bliadhna fichead. Tha st貌iridh Iain air leantainn ri D貌mhnall fad a bheatha agus anns a' chiad phr貌gram tha sinn a' faighinn beachd air a bheatha thr脿th ann an Tiriodh, an Canada, agus aig toiseach a' chogaidh.
