Excerpt from The Story of Dublin The topography of Dublin is easy to understand. The river, running east and west, bisects the city. There are two lines of main thoroughfare, Grafton, Westmoreland and Sackville Streets going north and south, Thomas, High, Lord Edward and Dame Streets, going east and west. These intersect at College Green, which is, to all intents and purposes, the centre of the town, and has been taken as the starting-point of most of the excursions in Part II.

Excerpt from The History of the County of Dublin Professional avocations have retarded the completion of these works, and prevented such a close correction of the proofs as might best improve the style; but this, at least, I am proud to say, that in all the details, (with the exception of the paper), they are Irish manufacture and, although I feel most grateful to Messrs. Longman and Co. For the polite offer of their London imprimatur, and services as publishers, it was a gratification I could not forego, to see the title page stamped with the more national attestation of Dublin - Hodges and Smith.

Excerpt from The Glamour of Dublin RE ever Helen brought down the Eastern world for the sake of the captive tears she shed, before Plato grew wise or Hannibal marched away, there were tales of Troy and Tyre and Carthage here. And often there was a flutter over the water and a shake of the stepping-stones by Whit worth Bridge as a pilgrim or a bandit, or an envoy or some runaway sailor out of a ship from Sidon crossed to take the Tara road. For you will hear of Firbolgs and Fomorians, and Tuatha de Danaans, and Milesians and Phoenicians; some of them arrived not long after the Flood. And, for certain, they were smelting gold already in the forests east of the lieey about izoo b.c. Close by this Dublin, auriferous now in the gold of the spirit as who that dwells herein must know. To all then who cherish a care or a curiosity for the story of the town I offer this book ofcolours. It is pictorial, and it is as true as it may be; since truth without colour is but conceit of infallibility or the dull light of a barren mind. Enter, at once, then reader to your gallery of words.
