WHEN THE CLYDE RAN RED

An acclaimed political and social history of Red Clydeside from the author of Damn Rebel Bitches: The Women of the ’45. Through the bitter strike in 1911 at the Singer Sewing machine plant, Bloody Friday and the deployment of the army in 1919, the General Strike, the Spanish Civil War, and the Clydebank Blitz, the people fought for the dignity of labour and a fairer society. At the same time, Glasgow was home to glittering picture palaces, magnificent exhibitions, and innovations in architecture, art and design.
