Stones of Dublin - A History of Dublin in Ten Buildings

A very good overview of Dublin's history. Not quite sure the framing device of reviewing history building by building quite works as it obviously leads to the story being told out of chronological order and tends to lead to some repetitiveness (here's what happened during 1916 at Dublin Castle; here's what happened in 1916 at Kilmainham, and so on) In addition, there is some poor editing in places though. There are quite a few typos and repetition of phrases that could've been tided up. Still, overall it's a recommended read.
