Product Description
Synopsis
Few cities in the world abound with so many extraordinary stories as Glasgow and the best of these are found in this collection. The city has witnessed some of the most significant events of the times; from tremendous triumphs to cataclysmic calamities, amazing achievements to spectacular sensations. The stories range from the work-in at the Upper Clyde shipbuilders to the legendary Maggie McIver, Glasgow's most astute businesswoman who was the founder of the Barras, and from the launching of the Queen Mary to the talents of Billy Connolly. They cover the nostalgia of the trams and the era when Glasgow was the cinema city, the memories of the great comedians that the city produced and the time when the tanks were sent in to tame the workers, to the courage of the citizens during the Blitz.
