Wexford is a town of great character and individuality. It has been in existence for one thousand years, and this new publication, researched and written by County Librarian Jarlath Glynn explores that vibrant history. This is done here by the authors contrasting forty-five archive images with full colour professional photographs.

This book takes in the buildings and streetscapes of the town, capturing the changing character of Wexford. Most of the original photographs date from 1900 or before, and were chosen to highlight particularly important aspects of the heritage of the town.
