Night Song of the Last Tram - A Glasgow Childhood by Robert Douglas

4.0
This memoir of a childhood in post-WWII Glasgow was far less "noble poor" than the previous Glasgow memoir I read, though the grim moments were not sensationalized either. The whole book is an interesting set of snapshots from a particular time in history, and it was both useful to me for the reasons that I read it, but also in general a decent book. I'd be interesting in reading more of his work.
