Publisher's Synopsis
Aimed at anyone interested in local history and prehistory, this book provides a fascinating and accessible insight into the cultural heritage of West Central Scotland. Specialist authors were commissioned to describe - from the end of the last ice age to modern times - the region now encompassed by the local authority areas of East Dunbartonshire, West Dunbartonshire, Glasgow, Inverclyde, North Lanarkshire, South Lanarkshire, Renfrewshire and East Renfrewshire. Each essay looks at a particular period or topic, reviews the evidence currently available and identifies areas for future study.
