General Interest Lost Dundee: Dundee's Lost Architectural Heritage (Lost History) Product Details: Category: Books ISBN: 1841588156 Title: Lost Dundee: Dundee's Lost Architectural Heritage (Lost History) The Fast Free Shipping Author: Whatley, Patricia Publisher: Birlinn General Year Published: 2010 Number of Pages: 272 Book Binding: Paperback / softback Prizes: Book Condition: VERYGOOD SKU: GOR005407669 Item description Lost Dundee brings the second city of renaissance Scotland back to life showing, through previously undiscovered photographs and drawings, the life and the maritime quarter of this great port. It illustrates Dundee's transformation into a major Georgian town at the centre of the flax trade between St Petersburg and the USA, with the development of major public buildings a result of the influx of wealth into the region. This book goes on to examine Dundee's next transformation into the jute capital of the world. Its identity was transformed by the arrival of railways, which separated the town from the sea, and by the great mills and factories which engulfed it on both sides. The pressures upon medieval Dundee proved so great that in 1871 the process of replacing it with grandiose Victorian boulevards began. The final section illustrates the changes wrought in the twentieth century with the death of jute and its replacement as the city's major employer by tertiary education. This book draws particularly upon the rich visual history sources of Charles Lawson's drawings of old Dundee in the Central Library, the DC Thomson photographic collection, and the University of Dundee Archives. Essential to the understanding of this constantly re-generating city, this book contains 150 drawings, photographs and plans of Dundee.

There was a delay in shipping b/c book was damaged that they wanted to ship & they had to find another one to replace it. So it took 2 weeks to receive. The book received was in the "very good" condition as stated. I've bought from this seller many times and never received a junk book as I have from other seller's. They are thorough when it comes to inspecting books for quality & condition. Their reasonable prices keep me coming back!! Thanks for another great buying experience with you!! 👍👍👍
Item arrived as shown on ebay. Sellers communication was very good and consistent.Shipping packaging was not ideal because it was just shipped in a paper envelope so, the outer paper sleave of the booklet may have been damaged - but it was a used item and based on the ebay photos from the seller, the sleave had wear anyway. That said the book and cds are in good condition and I am happy with the purchase. I would buy from this seller again.
I first purchased this item, expecting the Clone Wars, unfortunately the wrong item was shipped to me as shown in photos, I contacted the seller and after a few exchanges they were able to assist me with the correct item, finally received it, came with great quality, perfect condition, good value and awesome appearance as shown in the photos. Very happy with my purchase and totally recommended seller for the excellent customer support!
