Originally published in 1983, this book sets the phases and
elements of Glasgow’s townscape evolution in their historical
framework, from the medieval period when Glasgow was a small but
important burgh to the growth of the town thanks to its command of
the transatlantic tobacco trade in the 18th Century. Examining the
solid growth which came with the textile phase of the industrial
revolution and subsequent pioneering achievements in ship-building
and marine engineering, the book also charts the subsequent
collapse of the industrial base and attempts at urban renewal on a
massive scale.
