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 insides of a great city in years gone by.

'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
