Dundee's official history as a burgh stretches back more than 800 years, though there is much evidence of settlement in the area long before that. The nineteenth century saw the town's expansion into a large industrial city. Dundee suffered more than most cities in the mid-twentieth-century drive for modernisation as not only long-established buildings but parts of the ancient street pattern were swept away in large-scale demolitions in the 1960s and 1970s. At the same time, the city lost its natural connection with the River Tay as some of its docks were filled in to make way for the landfall of the Tay Road Bridge. More recently the city has sought to reconnect with the river and Dundee has had to adapt to changes in lifestyles and ways of working.Lost Dundee presents a portrait of this corner of Scotland from the nineteenth century to more recent decades, showing what has radically changed or disappeared. It not only shows industries and buildings that have gone but people and street scenes, popular places of entertainment and much more. This fascinating photographic history of lost Dundee will appeal to all those who live in the area or know it well, as well as those who remember it from previous decades.
