Lost Aberdeen - Aberdeen''s Lost Architectural Heritage

Featuring archive photographs, many of which are published for the first time, Lost Aberdeen paints a fascinating portrait of one of Scotland's greatest cities. Diane Morgan charts the disappearance of the irreplaceable medieval townscape before moving on to more modern times, tracing the evolution and gradual erosion of the Granite City.
