Information: Compressing 800 years into a 40 minute talk, this presentation considers the evolution of Glasgow from a centre of pilgrimage to the world city of today. En-route it introduces the twelfth century bishop and marketing genius who really got the whole thing going, the slave- owning plutocrats whose names are still in everyday use and the pivotal role of Glasgow's weavers in the invention of world tourism. Presentation by Neil Baxter of the RIAS. Cinema 2.
