Description
Dublin's bridges have shaped its history over a thousand years. From Church Street Bridge, built by the Vikings, to the Rosie Hackett Bridge, completed in 2014, each bridge has played a role in the city's development. By tracing the construction of Dublin's twenty bridges in chronological order, it is possible to piece together the story of Ireland's capital city. Fergal Tobin's book reveals how the city has been truly made by its bridges, and how they have contributed to its growth and transformation over time. This book offers a fresh perspective on Dublin's history, exploring the city's development through its most iconic landmarks.
