Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Dundee is both fascinating and dramatic. Now, in Dundee – A Short History, Norman Watson brings to life the people and events that shaped this great city from its origins and early development, through centuries of poverty and prosperity to the golden years of jute, jam and journalism and beyond. In this absorbing and comprehensive history, meet the women who hijacked the Reformation, the sisters who terrorised Winston Churchill, the martyred George Wishart who kept only his hat, the whalerman James McIntosh who ate his to survive, and witness Shackleton’s remarkable expedition to far-north Dundee and the flights of fancy surrounding Preston Watson. And after tragic events like Monk’s massacre and the Tay Bridge disaster, the city’s extraordinary story sparkles into life again with its brilliant cultural renaissance and dramatic change of fortunes. Dundee – A Short History is an acclaimed and authoritative account of the remarkable story of one of Scotland’s greatest cities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the opening of the V & A Museum of Design and redevelopment of the waterfront area, Dundee is a city looking confidently to the future but there is also an interesting past just waiting to be rediscovered. Rediscovered Dundee is an anthology of stories from that past. The story of any city is the story of its people and this book features accounts of some Dundonians whose names have been long absent from the history books - such as the boy who attempted a solo crossing of the Atlantic or the man who helped to change our way of death . It investigates some of the physical relics of the past which are still around us but whose stories have been forgotten over time, including the flag that flew at Culloden and the fountain that nobody wanted. There is also the truth about local myths have grown up and have been passed on down the years. Did a Dundee woman really tend to the dying Admiral Nelson and did the heir to the British throne secretly die near Broughty Ferry? With many tourists now visiting Dundee, initially drawn by the V&A, who then find that the city has much more to offer, this book also looks at other visitors through the years. Just as the modern city is being rediscovered perhaps it is time that Dundonians and visitors alike rediscover the city’s hidden history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is almost 100 years since the first tram was preserved in Britain, in the century since then a great variety of trams have been saved from tramway systems small and large. Some trams were purchased directly out of service and others were acquired after many years alternative usage, some being summer houses or homes, while others were used on farms or allotments where they served as sheds and out buildings, before being lovingly restored over many years. The story of tram preservation is not wholly positive, in the early days many trams suffered from being stored in the open at unsafe sites, where the historic vehicles were often subjected to acts of vandalism and suffered badly from the weather. This changed to a large extent in 1959, with the acquisition of the site of the future National Tramway Museum at Crich in Derbyshire,, where a comprehensive collection of trams from all over Britain and also foreign tram networks has been assembled, to secure a collection of tramcars for future generations. There is also today fine collections of trams in other museums in Britain and Ireland, which cover much of the rich history of this once common form of public transport. This book looks at almost 200 of these trams when they were in service, through historic photographs, prior to their withdrawal and eventual preservation.
