From its founding as a Royal Burgh in the twelfth century and
through its growth and development as an internationally renowned
hotbed of science, education, literature and culture, to its
current status as home of the Scottish Parliament and the largest
financial centre in the UK outside London, Edinburgh has a proud
and distinctive identity. This extraordinary history is embodied in
the many fine buildings that have shaped the 'Athens of the North'.
Edinburgh in 50 Buildings explores the history of this rich and
vibrant city through a selection of its greatest architectural
treasures. From the elegance of the neoclassical and Georgian New
Town to the controversial Parliament building, this unique study
celebrates the city's architectural heritage in a new and
accessible way. Local author Jack Gillon guides the reader on a
tour of the city's historic buildings and modern architectural
marvels.
