The Glasgow Encyclopaedia by Joe Fisher

This encyclopaedia reflects the history of Glasgow, from its past as "second city of the Empire" and its early industrialization to its present as a post-industrial city with traumatic inner-city deprivation, and its growing international status, which was recognized in 1990 when it became the United Kingdom's first "City of Culture". The book's wide-ranging entries provide information on topics from banks to wells, from cleansing to tramcars, and from executions to police.
