The Clyde: From Its Source to the Sea

Originally published in 1888. Written by the Secretary of the Institution of Engineers and Shipbuilders in Scotland, this very readable volume is copiously illustrated with over forty line drawings. It looks at the development of the Clyde as a navigable river, the rise and progress of marine engineering and shipbuilding on its banks, and the leading historical, geological, and meteorological features of the Clyde Valley.
