The Hidden City by Robert Smith
This text describes two types of Aberdeen - a community crowded with buildings and ravaged by disease and poverty, compared with the new Aberdeen of today. This book also describes how the newspaper industry was established in Aberdeen, giving a glimpse of a newspaper at work.
Robert Smith began his journalistic career as a copy boy at the age of fifteen, and would go on to be the longest-serving editor of the Evening Express in Aberdeen. On retiring he became a prolific author of local history and walks in the North-East of Scotland. Robert died in 2008 at the age of eighty-four.
