Excerpt from The Dictionary of Dublin: Being a Comprehensive Guide to the City and Its Neighbourhood
The "Dictionary of Dublin" consists of Two Parts. The first gives the information required by all visitors; the second, a Dictionary proper, gives fuller particulars on subjects of special interest; a system of cross references, making it easy to consult either section as desired.
By this means a visitor making a short stay is not overburdened with details, and yet can at any moment get the fullest information upon anything which specially attracts him. To the resident or to the visitor bent on thoroughly investigating the city and its environs, it is hoped the book will prove an ample guide.
In the first edition of a book, containing so much material in a small space, complete freedom from fault can hardly be expected.
