Later fashions in architecture, some good, some bad, have overlaid but not eliminated the early pattern of the city. So the bricks and mortar of the Dublin we see today is the creation of many hands, many minds, part legacy, part evolution, recalling those who have left and reflecting those who now live here. Grant Lincoln brings together the past and present in this topographical odyssey which takes the ready west to east along the quays, and north to south from Parnell Square to St. Stephen's Green. The book covers the Dublin of Gardiner and Gandon, the work of modern architects, the changes wrought by development, the history of individual buildings and streets, forming a visual narrative of how Dublin came to be what it is today." ; FINE/FINE.
