About this product

Product Information

This is a fascinating and accessible short history of Dundee. Norman Watson's pen sweeps across Dundee's cityscape for a new and absorbing history which will be enjoyed by residents and visitors alike. From revisiting the city's origins to describing its recent achievements, his journey through time reveals the very soul and spirit of the city. Dundee: A Short History vividly describes the city's thrilling and turbulent history, its poverty and prosperity, its see-sawing cultural identity and growing reputation in science, education and the arts. Marrying a journalist's instincts to authoritative but readable research, Watson pulls no punches on his way through the changing centuries. Where are the legacies of jute, jam and journalism? Why was the old Overgate demolished? Why is Tayside House still standing? What went wrong with the Waterfront? He explores and he reports, writing intuitively on the character of a city cherished by Dundonians the world over - but one whose story is often hidden from history and mainstream Scottish thinking. Accompanied by fascinating photographs, Dundee: A Short History is a book which shines like a searchlight on a city passing through a period of exciting development and change.

Quick delivery and well packaged however, this book is extremely musty smelling. Can't see me sitting reading it and I like older books but it's very faded and smelly. ��‍♀️

  • GREAT BOOK ABOUT THE CITY OF DUNDEE

    I commented to a friend not so long ago that there hasn't been a proper history book written about the city of Dundee. He recommended this book to me and it blew me away. It's the first proper account of my home city since the very beginnings as a living area for early man in a perfect coastal position. I loved it so much I've started to read it again.
