Synopsis
Bearing a rich history and proud traditions, in the 19th century Scotland generated vast wealth through commerce, manufacturing, and heavy industry which made Glasgow the "Second City of the Empire" and shipbuilder to the world. This book covers the development of the Clyde Navigation, and the international exhibitions which took place in Kelvingrove and showed Glasgow off to the world. The photographs also show the drastic changes to the city as it was in the 18th century, changes that produced handsome new streets and urban parks, as well as increasingly fetid slums and unsightly factories. Later demolition of the historic core of the city by unsentimental Glaswegians made way for new public buildings, housing, the central shopping area, and a modern railway system. This book also reflects the character of the hardworking population whose chequered lives have created the modern city of Glasgow., Bearing a rich history and proud traditions, in the nineteenth century Scotland generated vast wealth through commerce, manufacturing and heavy industry which made Glasgow the 'Second City of the Empire' and shipbuilder to the world.

- 7***u (13)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseIn very good condition and arrived on time.
- p***1 (6)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseAppearance Condition is good, same as the description. However, I specifically look for a version with green cover, and I get one with blue cover. I suspect they are different versions, and store staff also didn’t clarify the version concerns for me, just told me the cover is not guaranteed. But the quality and price is acceptable so I won’t return it, just leave a comment here
