Maureen Reynolds was born and brought up in Dundee, a city with no shortage of intriguing characters, extraordinary events and fascinating memories. In this brand new collection of tales, Maureen looks back to a time of youth and innocence and brings it all vividly back to life once again. There are tales of street games played during the long, hot summer holidays, recollections of the noise and grime of the jute mills, great Dundee characters like James 'Napper' Thomson and his Lochee emporium, spookie nichts in Wallace's restaurant, piggyback flying, ghost stories, tattie gathering, stories from the trams and family tales from a simpler time. Teatime Tales from Dundee is a warm and nostalgic new collection of stories about growing up and living in Dundee.
