  This lavishly illustrated book charts the history of Belfast City Hall from its genesis in the ambitions of the municipal fathers, through to completion in 1906, and on into the twenty-first century. This architectural landmark has acted as the civic center of a frequently troubled city. It has been the forum for many extraordinary moments in Northern Ireland's history, from the signing of the Solemn League and Covenant in 1912 to the visit of former president Bill Clinton as part of the 1995 Peace Process.
