The Great Dublin Whiskey Fire
by Las Fallon
On the night of June 18, 1875, a fire broke out in a whiskey warehouse in the Liberties, Dublin. As barrels of whiskey burst in the intense heat, flaming alcohol flowed through the streets, setting the city ablaze. The fire posed an unprecedented challenge to firefighters and left devastation in its wake.
Drawing on years of research, this book uncovers the origins and impact of Dublin’s most unusual and dramatic fires. This is a vivid retelling that blends historical narrative with the perspective of someone who walked the same streets, fought fires in the same neighbourhoods, and understands the legacy left behind.
This book is an essential read for history lovers, fire service professionals, and anyone intrigued by the intersection of disaster and resilience.
