Download or read book Dundee: A Short History written by Norman Watson. This book was released on 2017-11-25. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Dundee is both fascinating and dramatic. Now, in Dundee – A Short History, Norman Watson brings to life the people and events that shaped this great city from its origins and early development, through centuries of poverty and prosperity to the golden years of jute, jam and journalism and beyond. In this absorbing and comprehensive history, meet the women who hijacked the Reformation, the sisters who terrorised Winston Churchill, the martyred George Wishart who kept only his hat, the whalerman James McIntosh who ate his to survive, and witness Shackleton’s remarkable expedition to far-north Dundee and the flights of fancy surrounding Preston Watson. And after tragic events like Monk’s massacre and the Tay Bridge disaster, the city’s extraordinary story sparkles into life again with its brilliant cultural renaissance and dramatic change of fortunes. Dundee – A Short History is an acclaimed and authoritative account of the remarkable story of one of Scotland’s greatest cities.

Book Synopsis Lost Tramways of Scotland: Dundee by : Peter Waller
Download or read book Lost Tramways of Scotland: Dundee written by Peter Waller. This book was released on 2019-07-26. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguably the last of the 'traditional' tramways to operate in Britain, Dundee's fleet of some 56 trams were to survive through until the mid-1950s when - despite considerable opposition - this popular form of transport was replaced by bus. The final Dundee trams operated in October 1956. - The Lost Tramways of Scotland series documents the tram networks which were at the heart of many of Britain's growing towns and cities from the mid-19th century to the mid-20th century. - Transport expert Peter Waller, author of numerous works on the regional tram systems of the UK, guides the reader along the route of the network and discusses its key features stop by stop. - As well as rigorously detailed transport history, these volumes provide an intimate glimpse into life as it was lived during this period, and the recognisable streets which have been maintained or transformed through the decades. - An informative, accessible and portable resource for the tram enthusiast as well as the general reader, and a superb souvenir or gift for visitors past and present. - Photo illustrated throughout, including many archive images which are appearing in print for the first time.
