Dublin's rich history unfolds in this concise and engaging account. From its origins as an Irish village to its current status as Europe's largest city, the story of Dublin is one of transformation and resilience. Author Trevor White brings together key events and anecdotes in a lively narrative that explores the city's complexities and contradictions. With affection and clarity, White shares his own experiences running a museum celebrating Dublin's history, humour, and hospitality. The result is a vivid and colourful portrait of achievement and misadventure in a city that has been shaped by its Viking, English, and Irish pasts. This compact history of Dublin offers a fresh perspective on the city's development, revealing the incident, humour, and humanity that have made it so endearing to visitors and residents alike.
