The Flower and the Green Leaf by Alison Brown

The gripping story of the first students to be educated in the Mackintosh Building at Glasgow School of Art, this book coincides with the 100th anniversary of the official inauguration of the Mackintosh Building, which is accompanied by a major exhibition at Glasgow School of Art. Because of the increasing interest in Mackintosh himself, the building has become a tourist attraction with 20,000 visitors a year. The book offers fresh insight and new perspectives into the building's history on the lives of the first generation of students.
