{"product_id":"glasgow-alan-taylor-9781780278032","title":"Glasgow: The Autobiography","description":"Glasgow: The Autobiography tells the story of the fabled, former Second City of the British Empire from its origins as a bucolic village on the rivers Kelvin and Clyde, through the tumult of the Industrial Revolution to the third millennium.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIncluding extracts from an astonishing array of contributors from Daniel Defoe, Dorothy Wordsworth and Dr Johnson to Evelyn Waugh and Dirk Bogarde, it also features the writing of bred-in-thebone Glaswegians such as Alasdair Gray, Liz Lochhead, James Kelman and 2020 Booker prize-winner Douglas Stuart. The result is a varied and vivid portrait of one of the world's great cities in all its grime and glory - a place which is at once infuriating, inspiring, raucous, humourful and never, ever dull.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alan Taylor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1780278039\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781780278032\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Birlinn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/02\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.77h x 5.05w x 0.99d","brand":"Alan Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44070221152511,"sku":"9781780278032","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cfa13850-805b-43fb-8b5f-00cfed4c5efe.jpg?v=1685429068","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/glasgow-alan-taylor-9781780278032","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
