Book Description

This book is a colouful and vibrant account of life on Clydeside between the first and second world wars. Robert Spalding was born to the throbbing of six shipyards which were the 'bread and butter' to his large extended family. He writes about his first eighteen years in the tenements and on the streets of Glasgow and the many characters he encountered. His love of fine ships built nearby and their own stories are told. Through anecdotes. parks, art galleries, concert halls, picture houses, steamies, shops and bars are all recalled.
