In 1756, John Rocque created a map of Dublin. This book explores some highlights of that map, how things have changed and not changed over time and how some parts of the city were at the time. It's interesting to see it and to see the development of the city.

Then again I love this stuff. It was cool to see the house I used to live in on Capel Street already there, then again, it was originally built in 1701 or so.

Fascinating for students of history. ( )
