The Clyde is arguably the most evocative of Scottish rivers. Its
mention conjures up a variety of images of power, productivity and
pleasure from its 'bonnie banks' through the orchards of south
Lanarkshire to its association with shipbuilding and trade and the
holiday memories of thousands who fondly remember going 'doon the
watter'. Its story reflects much of the history of the lands it
flows through and the people who live on its banks. This book looks
at the maps which display the river itself from its source to the
wide estuary which is as much a part of the whole image. It
discusses how the river was mapped from its earliest depictions and
includes such topics as navigation, river crossings, war and
defence, tourism, sport and recreation, industry and power and
urban development.
