This oral history of Glasgow spans most of the last century--a time
of economic downturn and eventual renewal, in which the many
communities making up the city experienced upheavals that tore some
apart and brought others closer together. It tells of the beating
heart of no mean city in the words of the people who made it what
it is. Piers Dudgeon has listened to dozens of people who remember
the city as it was, and who have lived through its many changes.
They talk of childhood and education, of work and entertainment, of
family, community values, health, politics, religion, and music.
Their stories will make you laugh and cry. It is people's own
memories that make history real and this engrossing book captures
them vividly.
