Did you know?
The inventor of the submarine, John Holland, came from Liscannor in County Clare. Holland immigrated to Boston in the 1870s where he later submitted a design for a submarine to the United States Navy. Although many of Holland’s designs were successful, his first submarine design was rejected by the Navy Secretary as “a fantastic scheme of a civilian landsman.”
