Excerpt from The History of Old Dundee: Narrated Out of the Town Council Register, With Additions From Contemporary Annals I at first proposed to print the records chronologically, as has been done with those of some other burghs, but a careful consideration convinced me that this would not be a very satisfactory arrangement, as many of them are short, detached, and intermixed references, which could hardly prove intelligible, and would not be of special historical interest, unless those relating to each other were conjoined in regular sequence. The method which I then adopted of condensing the materials into separate articles, arranged, with marginal dates, in a narrative form, implied a considerable amount of labour, but I felt that this should not be grudged if it would have the effect of developing their proper meaning and realising their full value. I have found in contemporary annals - in the Acts of the Scottish Parliament, especially in that portion of them which was lately printed from the volumes found in the London State Paper Ofiice, in the recently published volumes of the Register of the Privy Council, and in other historical authorities, general and local - many references to the burgh which throw light upon its history and records, and have embodied them also in the narrative; and I have printed in the appendix some inter esting and important additions derived from original documents. It has been my endeavour to retain as far as possible the quaint and pithy language of the old writings, but I have considerably modernised the spelling - this being so irregular as to be frequently confusing excepting in the case of words of antiquarian or philological interest, which I have invariably printed as they are written, giving explanation of their meanings in notes, when such seemed necessary.

Excerpt from Old Dundee: Ecclesiastical, Burghal, and Social, Prior to the Reformation At the time of the publication of my History of Old Dundee which deals almost entirely with matters subsequent to the Reforma tion - my intent ion was to have followed it with another volume bringing the subject down to a later period. Having, however, made an examination of the Burgh Court Records - which begin at a much earlier date than the Council Register, on which my History is mainly founded - I discovered that the earliest of them are of so much interest and importance as illustrations of pre-reformation times, that I resolved to delay the execution of this intention, and devote myself to the production of a separate work in elucidation of a period for which there is such ample and valuable material. This does not lead to repetitions; for, at the few points where the dates of the History and this work overlap, the subjects are usually different. The first volume of the Records is the one already de scribed as The Book of the Church, originally intended to contain the inventories of the altar ornaments in St. Mary's Church, but which, after having been only in small part used for that purpose, was filled up with the Records of the Burgh Court from 28th November, 1520, to 13th October, 1523, with an additional entry the following August This is the oldest historical volume in the city archives, and its preservation from the destruction which befall the others in 1 548, is probably due, as before noticed, to its having been carried abroad.

The story of Dundee is both fascinating and dramatic. Now, in Dundee – A Short History, Norman Watson brings to life the people and events that shaped this great city from its origins and early development, through centuries of poverty and prosperity to the golden years of jute, jam and journalism and beyond. In this absorbing and comprehensive history, meet the women who hijacked the Reformation, the sisters who terrorised Winston Churchill, the martyred George Wishart who kept only his hat, the whalerman James McIntosh who ate his to survive, and witness Shackleton’s remarkable expedition to far-north Dundee and the flights of fancy surrounding Preston Watson. And after tragic events like Monk’s massacre and the Tay Bridge disaster, the city’s extraordinary story sparkles into life again with its brilliant cultural renaissance and dramatic change of fortunes. Dundee – A Short History is an acclaimed and authoritative account of the remarkable story of one of Scotland’s greatest cities.
