Sinopsis
Unforgettable . . . no better compilers could have been found - History Today
Dublins past comes dazzlingly alive - Publishing News
Erudite and practical simultaneously - Gemma Hussey, Irish Independent
Dublins turbulent history, its intensely literary and theatrical character of long literary lineage, its revolutionary ideals and heroes, and its ordinary life are all brought to life in this collection of letters, diaries and memoirs of travellers to the city and by Dubliners themselves.
The extracts, from medieval times onwards, include Red Hugh ODonnells escape from Dublin Castle, James Joyces plans for a novel while staying at the Martello Tower, and the seizure of the GPO by Irish volunteers during the Easter Rising.
The book also includes gossip and story-telling in the humorous sketches of many famous Dubliners.
