- Book Synopsis
- From medieval origins as a safe anchorage and a fishing village, in the early 18th century, a harbour was created at Greenock, and it grew into a major customs port and industrial town. The second half of the 20th century especially saw Greenock losing much of its industry and, consequently, many of its buildings. Whole areas have been obliterated. So, the poor author has faced a few challenges in locating some of the exact spots of the old photos we have selected for him to include, but he has done a magnificent job taking present-day images. He has also written instructive captions that explain the changes that have taken place between the then and the now that will help Greenock residents better understand the town's history and heritage.
