Publisher's Synopsis
A Liberties Childhood Born and bred in Dublin's Liberties, Phil O'Keefe's memoir evokes the streets and lanes of her childhood in this enthralling memoir of Dublin in the 1930s. It was a time when draymen carted barrels of Guiness from the brewery to the pubs, when bread delivered to shops on open trays was still steaming, and market day meant cattle being herded through the centre of the city. A fascinating and evocative picture of a time now all but forgotten.
