The Dear Green Place has always dispensed unforgettable memories. The energy and humour of the folk who have lived on the banks of the Clyde down the years is legendary. Here, in this little book, are fifty of the best photographs ever taken of the city. They reflect the life of the people who built the locomotives and ships that became famous throughout the world the same people who so loved to dance to the throb of the big bands and who flocked to theatres to laugh at local comedians galore.

This is a warm family album in miniature depicting a great city, past and present. No one who has lived or visited Glasgow should be without it.
