Donnybrook
A History
Beatrice Doran New Paperback Illustrated
Postscript summary
After outlining the early history of Donnybrook, Beatrice Doran looks in more detail at various aspects of its past, including the Fair established there in 1204 by Royal Charter and which continued for 700 years, its educational institutions, leisure facilities, transport and shops, and its most well-known buildings and people.
Product information
Full publisher description
Donnybrook is one of the most iconic areas of South Dublin, a prosperous and peaceful suburb that is well-known as the being the heartland of Leinster Rugby. It derived its name, however, from the violence and carousing that were a regular feature of the area in the 1800s, and this book tells the story of the development and the journey from these inauspicious beginnings to its current form through a series of rare and beautifully produced photographs.
