About this title

Synopsis

Where did Ireland's legal profession first learn to speak with a single voice? It began within the walls of the King's Inns in Dublin. Opening a doorway into the history of Irish law, Bartholomew Thomas Duhigg offers a meticulous account of the legal body at the centre of kings inns ireland and its evolving connexion with England. Law and power meet here daily. Through charters, statutes and institutional memory, this early institutional legal history study illuminates dublin legal institutions, the shaping of the Irish bar and bench, and the complex fabric of english irish legal relations under the long shadow of Ireland under British rule. Both a narrative and a rigorous historical legal reference, History Of The King's Inns (Part I) stands as an essential academic research reference for legal historians and students of inns of court history, as well as an engaging window onto a formative era for general readers. Its blend of documentary detail and reflective commentary makes it a cornerstone volume for any serious irish legal history collection. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
