Now Glasgow

A spectacular collection of photographs of Scotland's largest city, Glasgow, capturing the very essence of the place as it is now. 'Allan Wright's wonderful photos of Glasgow show that our city contributes just as much to Scotland's unparalleled scenic splendour as any mountain or glen. The photos here will strike sparks of instant recognition and memory in everyone who knows and loves Glasgow as well as making us look afresh at familiar scenes shown in a new and unfamiliar light. 'Above all though, Allan has captured, in the faces that appear in the later photos in the book, the personality and spirit of the people who populate Glasgow's landscape. Yes, we have stunning buildings and streetscapes, lush parks, incredible views - but none of them would mean anything without the Glaswegians who bring them to life. This is a book for and about them.' Susan Aitken
