Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The full history of one of Scotland's most colourful cities in one compact volume! Throughout its existence, Glasgow has been a city of great complexity. From its tentative origins, under the watchful eye of St Mungo, Glasgow grew from the serene 'Dear Green Place' into a bustling trading hub that boomed during the Industrial Revolution and growth of the British Empire. At its peak, Glasgow was a place of unlimited opportunity and wealth creation throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. Flip that coin, though, and the city's streets were home to mass poverty, crime and slum living. In recent decades, these streets - exuding Victorian fortitude still - have provided for and encouraged an inexhaustible line of talented creatives who have left powerful marks of their own on Glasgow's story. Through the eyes of a local, The Little History of Glasgow explores the city's slow and steady economic rise, its calamitous collapse and its 21st-century reinvention as one of Europe's most characterful cities. AUTHOR: Neil Robertson is a self-employed digital marketing consultant, travel writer and blogger. Focusing solely on the Scottish tourism industry, he covers the entirety of Scotland unearthing its best bits and striving to bring travellers to the shores. Neil works closely with all the major players in the industry and is one of the UK's leading travel bloggers as 'Travels with a Kilt'. Based in his home city of Glasgow, he travels the length and breadth of Scotland on an on-going basis as a writer, presenter at industry events, podcast host for VisitScotland and occasional radio broadcaster. 30 b/w illustrations The Little History of Glasgow explores the citys slow and steady economic rise, its calamitous collapse and its 21st-century reinvention as one of Europes most characterful cities Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Glaswegians are talkers, blaggers and storytellers. They love to wind each other up and to trigger a debate. They are friendly, no question, but its 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. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR014200091
