County Dublin is often told from the centre out. Francis Elrington Ball tells it parish by parish, street by field, ruin by record, until a whole landscape comes back into focus. Walk these parishes in time. Part Second of his landmark A History of the County Dublin surveys Donnybrook, Booterstown, St. Bartholomew, St. Mark, Taney, St. Peter, and Rathfarnham, tracing the people, places, and boundaries that shaped county Dublin Ireland from the earliest traces to eighteenth century Dublin. Equal parts irish local history book and antiquarian county survey, it reads like a living map: a historical gazetteer reference alive with parish identities, landholding change, and the enduring imprint of worship and community. Ball stands among the strongest voices in irish antiquarian scholarship, and this volume remains one of the most useful irish topographical histories for readers who want more than dates. It is attentive to irish church parish history, alert to dublin antiquities and monuments, and grounded in the practical detail that makes it a trusted genealogy research reference as well as a rewarding narrative for curious visitors and armchair walkers. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, and a local history collectors edition for anyone building a serious shelf of county dublin parishes and their stories.
