    A fascinating history of an ancient place.
    From its first mention in legend in the Book of Invasions, through early Christian monastic settlements, castles and grand residences, Fenian raids and the Battle of Tallaght, there has been huge change in Tallaght. In more recent times it has seen car and motorcycle racing, an aerodrome, the rise and fall of a chocolate factory and a pioneering telecommunications firm. The massive population explosion and rapid modernisation towards the end of the twentieth century means this once-tiny village in Dublin's foothills is now home to over 80,000 people.
    Richly illustrated with period photographs and original drawings by Michael O'Brien, Albert Perris tells the often-surprising story of Tallaght.

    A coastal town divided. A community in exile. A fight for justice that shook the Gulf.
     
    The Fishermen and the Dragon is a powerful, real-life thriller that blends civil rights, environmental crime, and cultural collision into one unforgettable narrative. Set in the fishing towns of Texas in the 1970s and 80s, it tells the true story of Vietnamese refugees fleeing war—only to face hostility, racism, and violence from the Ku Klux Klan and petrochemical giants.
     
    But this is more than a story of conflict. It’s a story of courage. Of immigrants and locals uniting against pollution, intimidation, and injustice. Of communities transforming pain into purpose and resistance into renewal.
     
    Through deeply human storytelling and gripping investigative detail, this audiobook explores what happens when ordinary people refuse to stay silent—choosing instead to lead, protect, and rise together.
     
    If you believe that real leadership begins at the grassroots, that legacy is forged in resilience, and that justice is a fight worth waging, this is a story you’ll never forget.
     
    The dragon was real. So were the heroes who faced it.
