There was a time when the two most notorious red-light districts not only in Ireland but in all of Europe could be found on the streets of Dublin. Though the name of Monto has endured long in folk memory, the area known as Hell was equally notorious, feared and renowned in its day. In this new work Maurice Curtis explores the histories of these dark remnants of Dublin’s past, complete with their gambling, duelling and vice, their rowdy taverns and houses of ill repute.
MAURICE CURTIS holds a Ph.D in Modern Irish History andlecturse on History. He spent ten years as Assistant Manager/Book Buyer for the Veritas chain of bookshops in Ireland. He is involved with the Dublin Book Festival and works part-time as a tour guide in Dublin. His numerous books have been reviewed in Irish national and local press.
