Focusing on the often-overlooked Belfast Borough Police, this book sheds light on a significant yet neglected aspect of nineteenth-century Irish policing. While much attention has been given to the Royal Irish Constabulary and the Dublin Metropolitan Police, the narrative reveals the unique history and contributions of the Bulkies, providing a broader understanding of law enforcement in Ireland during this era.
