Produktbeschreibung
Drawing from all available records from Census to Land Registry, Church and Civil, the author has not only a deep interest in the area but was around when the townland was in the final days of it's country roads and farms. Personally knowing and being part of the lives of some of the residents of the large houses has enabled not only an accurate description of the area but also a real insight into this disappearing part of Irish life. Each of the large houses that once sat on the lands of Ballinteer from the early 1800s is covered and where possible, each resident of those houses has been researched and what has been uncovered is nothing short of amazing. Tales of gun running and kidnapping accompany underhanded deals that saw inheritances whipped away from family members. Accompanied by old maps and aerial photographs, the author has amassed a collection of personal photos of some of the old estate houses that have never been published before.

Autorenporträt
Liam Muldowney and Stephen O'Crowley combine their love of silent film, slapstick and a geeky interest in all things Irish in Hollywood by producing a volume of work that has taken many years to research and produce. Having exhausted all available records and archives, they have managed to bring back to life some of Ireland's biggest names in Hollywood and tell their stories one hundred years after their successes. Although largely forgotten today, these actors were once the biggest names on the screen. They worked with some of the most famous people from Hollywood's early days and some of the most influential stage actors the world has ever seen. They count amongst their co-stars; Mary Pickford, Charles Chaplin, Laurel and Hardy, Buster Keaton, Douglas Fairbanks Jr., Anna Pavlova, Colleen Moore, Mabel Normand, Mae West and Bela Lugosi.
