- A political and urban history of the building of courthouses and prisons throughout Ireland over a period of 100 years, based on a study of 150 individual building projects across 40 cities and towns. This single-authored monograph of 610 pages includes a 145-page appendix of sources for future researchers. The monograph is the first of its kind for either Britain or Ireland; its arguments are supported by the study over 8 years of thousands of manuscript letters, architectural drawings, 50,000 pages of parliamentary reports, and significant hitherto unpublished material from over 70 archives across three countries.
