Description

As Scotland’s fourth largest city, Dundee has long been known for its ‘Three Js’ of jute, jam and journalism. Now a thriving university city, Dundee is a UNESCO City of Design, and a shortlisted UK City of Culture. Year round, Dundee is alive with festivals, events and art, not to mention a rich history, including five castles and Antarctic research ship RRS Discovery to its name.

In this first ever comprehensive guide to the city, Dundee historian Norman Watson explores key streets and buildings, mapping changes over the years and into Dundee’s bright future. Using his award winning story-telling style, the people behind Dundee’s trades and customs are shown as the city developed from a centre of manufacturing into the vibrant cultural hub we see today.

Featuring full colour photographs and maps, this is the perfect guide for both locals and visitors keen to explore Dundee.
