For centuries Edinburgh has captured the imaginations of visitors and citizens alike with a unique brand of enchantment, and it’s not difficult to see why. An iconic castle keeps guard over the city from a volcanic crag, while medieval skyscrapers still tower over labyrinthine cobbled closes in the Old Town.
But only in the last century did this rather small city take its place on the world map. Thanks to the success of the Festival and the Fringe, the people of Edinburgh have seen their city transformed from little more than a pretty, parochial backwater to a cosmopolitan world centre for the arts.
Throughout this time, the Evening News has been recording not only the major events in the city, but the everyday lives of the citizens of Edinburgh. From women making sweets in Duncan’s chocolate factory, to children playing “peevers” and “bools” in the streets, to the crowds cheering on Hearts or Hibs, the Evening News has seen it all. The images captured in this exciting book come from the newspaper’s vast collection of photographs and offers a unique portrait of the city’s changing face throughout the 148-pages.
