The Bulkies by Brian Griffin

In Ireland, the story of nineteenth-century policing has been dominated mainly by studies of the Royal Irish Constabulary and, to a lesser extent, of the Dublin Metropolitan Police. This book tells the story of the forgotten force of Irish police history, the Belfast Borough Police or Bulkies .

Griffin's work has been widely shown and published. He held a one-man show at London's National Portrait Gallery in 1989. In the same year, he was named 'The Photographer of the Decade' by The Guardian newspaper, and his photograph 'A Cracked Frame' was used as the covershot for LIFE magazine's feature 'Best Photos of the Eighties.' Brian Griffin left photography in the 1990s to focus on directing commercials, music videos, and short films. In 2001, he returned to photography, reestablishing himself as the pinnacle of British photography once more.
