Lives Less Ordinary, Dublin's Fitzwilliam Square 1798-1922
Name: Lives Less Ordinary, Dublin's Fitzwilliam Square 1798-1922

Description:

Fitzwilliam Square on the south side of Dublin provides the setting and a true-life cast of characters for Lives Less Ordinary, which examines how people of this Georgian square impacted on the history of Dublin and the wider world. These disparate characters from a small residential enclave permeated every walk of Irish life (political, legal and cultural) in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. By using the residents' own correspondence and memoirs, as well as contemporary accounts in the chronicles and journals, this unique history is told through their perspectives.
