  His son, also called Risteard, wrote an excellent biography of his Dad and his life and times called "My Father The General".

• Paul O'Farrell said:

  Another very good book about him is "Portrait of a Revolutionary: General Richard Mulcahy and the Founding of the Irish Free State" by Maryann Gialanella Valiulis.

  amazing history view! I wonder what those "trucks" doing there in the water?

• Blue Birthday said:

  A similar hut is featured in another shot from the collection: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/3438462238/ I live not far from here now. Incredible.

• Michael Tobia said:

  maybe they were changing rooms or shower rooms of that sort.

• Greg said:

  See www.victorianweb.org for "bathing wagons," or www.metropostcard.com for "bathing machines." Used for changing clothes and entering the water with utmost modesty.

• naoisemarie said:

  You can see the bridge and that antique furniture shop! Wow, things haven't changed THAT much except for the fact that I don't think there are any more barges.

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  naoisemarie Well, not trading barges anyway.

• vandillo said:

  If only it was barge 8B... I have a pic of it taken during the Rising in 1916, and am trying to track its movement since then. Ah well, this is a great pic all the same!
