Two centuries of social & ceremonial life at the Irish court,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Champagne and Silver Buckles: The Viceregal Court at Dublin Castle 1700-1922 (Paperback)
Champagne & Silver Buckles: The Viceregal Court At Dublin Castle 1700-1922 by lecturer and social historian Joseph Robins is a serious and fascinating study spanning two centuries of social and ceremonial life at the Irish court. Thoroughly researched and drawn from a wealth of primary sources ranging from diaries and newspapers to genealogical and domestic records, Champagne & Silver Buckles is a fascinating, informative, very highly recommended glimpse into the upper-crust side of Irish history and a welcome, invaluable contribution to Irish History supplemental reading lists and academic reference collections.
