Download or read book Old Dunfermline written by William F. Hendrie and published by Stenlake Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our long-awaited new book on Dunfermline contains 66 excellent pictures covering all aspects of the town's history. There are photographs of long-lost shops and buildings, several pictures of the trams and a view of the old Cinema Picture House in East Port. The Abbey and Abbot House recall Dunfermline's medieval heritage while the Co-operative Society and Andrew Carnegie's various benefactions tell of its Victorian prosperity. Pictures of Pittencrieff Glen include Vincenzo Macari's horse-drawn ice-cream van, the original glasshouse and children enjoying a Gala Day pageant. Industry is represented by Hay & Robertson's works, the St Leonard's power loom factory and Gilbert Rae's mineral water works. The Rosyth rent strike of 1919, Dunfermline's Highland Games and a glimpse of Pitreavie Cottages and the village of Masterton (both demolished to make way for the approach roads to the Forth Road Bridge) are some of the other diverse topics covered in this very comprehensive book.

Download or read book A Life In Pictures written by Alasdair Gray and published by Canongate Books. This book was released on 2010-10-22 with total page 796 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ALASDAIR GRAY is Scotland’s best known polymath. Born in 1934 in Glasgow, he graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 1957 then lived by part-time teaching, painting and writing plays for TV and radio until 1981. His first novel, the loosely autobiographical, blackly fantastic LANARK, opened new imaginative territory for such varied writers as Jonathan Coe, A.L. Kennedy, Janice Galloway and Irvine Welsh. It led Anthony Burgess to call him “the most important Scottish writer since Sir Walter Scott”. His other published books include 1982 JANINE, POOR THINGS (winner of the Whitbread Award), THE BOOK OF PREFACES, THE ENDS OF OUR TETHERS and OLD MEN IN LOVE. In this book, with reproductions of his murals, portraits, landscapes and illustrations, Gray tells of the failures and successes which have led to his pictures being accepted by a new generation of visual artists.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical and Statistical Account of Dunfermline Ample and minute as some may think the volume is, he might have enlarged it still farther; but he was anxious to compress it, as much as possible, and there fore, he has omitted many details and suggestions, which once occurred to him as desirable to be given. He thinks himself fortunate in having procured, before the close of the publication, the use of the plates of some very beautt views and engravings of the Abbey Church and Palace, drawn and engraved by Mr John Johnston, Edinburgh, referred to at p. Which are not generally known, as only a few copies of them were ever thrown off, and put in circulation. These are Nos. Ix-xv., with the normal west door on plate xvi. The remainder of this plate, and the whole of the others, are original, and were engraved for the present work, from drawings executed for the pur pose. From the former set of plates not having been acquired till the portion of the volume to which they refer was printed, there is, of course, no reference to them in the text.
