Tea at Miss Cranston's - Hardcover
In Tea at Miss Cranston's and More Tea at Miss Cranston's, Anna Blair recreates a bygone era through the recollections of countless Glaswegians who shared their memories with her during extensive interviews. Nostalgic yet never rose-tinted or bitter, they offer a candid picture of the joys and hardships - as well as of the mundane and everyday occurrences - of past times. This omnibus edition of her much acclaimed books is a feast of history and together provide a fascinating glimpse into the vibrant and intimate sides of a great city in years gone by.

Review:
Anna Blair has a sensitive ear for dialect and a touch of gentle wit in linking her narrative (The Herald)
It's these apparently inconsequential accounts that make bygone eras vibrate with life (The Scots Magazine)
