Summary:In 1613, the small settlement of Belfast, with a population of about 1,000, was granted its Royal Charter as a borough. Three hundred years later, Belfast emerged as a city of international importance. With one of the world's largest ports, it enjoyed a brief spell as Ireland's largest urban center and was a major player in the British industrial scene. Unique in being an Irish city with a self-consciously British identity, the city reveled in, and in many ways depended upon, its central role within the British Empire. This book celebrates and explores an exciting period in the city's histo.
