Make an amazing tv series if dramatised. You can get this book in chapters for about €6. Can’t recommend it enough if you’re a history buff or not. So Vivid and well written it takes you there. A mental look back on our city n what it was actually like from a perspective you never usually get to read. Heartily recommend it to you. It’s fab. #Dublin #dublinhistory #historyireland
