No member of the Garda Siochana died in the line of duty between 1942 and 1970. Since that date, fourteen members of the force have paid the supreme price. 'The Final Beat' is their story. From Richard Fallon, who died while trying to stop a bank robbery in Dublin, to Jerry McCabe, shot during an armed raid in Co. Limerick in 1996, the story covers almost thirty years. Each case recalls acts of conspicuous bravery, as members of the Gardai 'usually unarmed' were faced by violent and ruthless criminals. Liz Walsh tells the stories of these fourteen brave men. Her book is a reminder that the Gardai daily place their lives on the line in an increasingly violent society. For each of the dead Gardai, there are hundreds of others who perform acts of quiet heroism in the service of the community. 'The Final Beat' is a compelling read. It is a reminder of the debt we owe to the Gardai and of the real risks that they run on our behalf.

Dublin voices: An oral folk history

For nearly thirty years, Kevin C. Kearns has been collecting the memories and recollections of Dubliners on tape. His previous books have focused on specific themes such as tenements and pubs. Now in this ambitious work, he uses the voices of ordinary Dubliners to construct an oral folk history of the city in the twentieth century. Firemen, engine drivers, bell ringers, gatekeepers, cinema ushers, gravediggers, dockers, factory workers, butchers, hatters, booksellers and many more: all contribute their own words to this extraordinary mosaic of Dublin city life from Victorian to modern times. In 'Dublin Voices', the words of ordinary Dubliners are heard as they recall their lives and times. These detailed and graphic oral narratives bring the city to life in a manner that conventional histories cannot match. 'The book is a goldmine of tiny details...he has superbly brought to light many disappearing inner city voices.' Dermot Bolger, Sunday Tribune. 'Here transcribed from tape are the true voices of soldiers and sailors of World War II, transport drivers, undertakers, dockers, revolutionaries, factory hands, fighters, and tradesmen of every sort from hatter to shoe repairer.'
