From The Grand Canal To The Dodder

The Dublin suburbs situated between the Grand Canal and the River Dodder consist of distinct neighbourhoods, each with their own character and style. It is an area which was in the past, and continues to be, home to poets, writers, artists, politicians and academics, all of whom in their own way, contributed to Irish life. In this book, Dr. Beatrice Doran tells of the lives of some of the most fascinating people who once lived on the leafy roads and avenue of this interesting area of the city.
