Explore the history of County Dublin from the pre-Christian era in Francis Elrington Ball’s A History of the County Dublin .

The complete work comprises six volumes. In each volume, the parishes are used to geographically divide County Dublin as a useful way of approaching local history. Ball’s meticulous research and interest in history allowed him to create a piece of work that is still highly regarded.

From castles, and landowners to the economic changes, epic battles, and politics that shaped Ireland in those early years, each volume will offer a deeper insight and appreciation for the history of County Dublin.

Ball aimed to ‘interest the ordinary reader, rather than the specialist’ which makes his work, and the images of landscapes, buildings, and portraits, truly bring this historical piece to life.
