Many mundane buildings passed on a daily basis take on a new life as their secrets are revealed. Stuff we had forgotten was brought back. An essential purchase for all lovers of and visitors to the wonderful City that is Glasgow
This is a very interesting book, i have the perthshire guide too by the same author. My only negative comment would be the fact that the book was missing about 8 photographs from the print. This is most likely a print error, not a problem with the content or information within the book and certainly not anything the author could control. It is just a shame some of the captions are there but there is a blank space where the picture should be. This was not mentioned in the detail with the listing. I still enjoyed reading this book though and looking at the photographs there were present.
