The First Irish Cities

An Eighteenth-Century Transformation

Beschreibung

Prior to the Industrial Revolution Irish cities were among the fastest growing large urban centers in Europe. David Dickson looks at ten of them, relating particular patterns in their evolution to Ireland's violent past. Beautifully illustrated, this account reveals how the country's cities were distinctive and influential beyond Ireland's shores.
