Hardback
Description
Glaswegians are talkers, blaggers and storytellers.
They love to wind each other up and to trigger a debate.
They are friendly, no question, but it’s more than just friendliness behind that desire for a good blether.
Throw in some nosiness, eternal empathy and no shortage of opinions begging to be unleashed. Because Glasgow has a big heart, and with it a moral compass. Join travel writer and Glaswegian Neil Robertson as he delves into what makes his hometown tick.
From the early origins of the city destined to become the Second City of the Empire, to the factory of the world in its industrial heyday and beyond, it's been a tumultuous journey encompassing plagues, penury, bombings and plenty of religious and political tension. Approachable reading for locals and visitors alike, The Little History of Glasgow salutes the great Glaswegians who have left their mark on the city's story alongside the modern-day industries and pastimes that continue to power the engine of Scotland's biggest city.
