BOOK REVIEW

The Honorable Society of King's

Inns,

by Daire Hogan is a recently

published booklet and was con-

ceived and produced primarily to

"provide visitors to the Inns with

an informative and readable guide".

The result is a well researched,

organised and pleasantly readable

product which should be of interest

to anybody curious as to the

history of the King's Inns buildings

or the legal professions.

Comprising some twelve pages

of text and particularly well

illustrated the guide deals with the

planning, financing and construc-

tion of the building itself. Of more

particular interest to solicitors will

be the fact that it covers, as exten-

sively as is possible in such a short

work, the development of the "Inns"

as a professional entity and its his-

torical links with the Solicitors pro-

fession and with its own professions

in England and Northern Ireland.

Mr. Hogan has included a biblio-

graphy for the benefit of the more

serious student and the booklet

costing £2.00 may be purchased

from the library of The Incorporated

Law Society or directly from The

King's Inns.
