Glasgow: The Forming of The City
Glasgow is the prime British example of the industrial city, and this work traces its architectural and socio-economic history from its merchant origins, right through the 19th and 20th century urban decline, and onwards to the present.

Men of the Clyde: Stanley Spencer's Vision at Port Glasgow
Sir Stanley Spencer is considered by many to be one of the greatest English artists. Men of the Clyde features Stanley Spencer's epic paintings of Lithgow's shipyard. The pictures depict the different trades and activities involved in the great collective enterprise of building a ship.

Glasgow (Pevsner Buildings of Scotland Series)
Glasgow has a wide array of architectural treasures: the greatest medieval cathedral in Scotland; fragments of a seventeenth- and eighteenth-century 'merchant city'; the well-preserved heart of a planned new town, Blythswood; a city centre dense with Victorian and Edwardian commercial buildings; stately nineteenth-century terraces lining the Great Western Road and picturesquely crowning Woodlands Hill; opulent villas in suburbs like Pollokshields and Kelvinside; and streets of tenements from the workaday to the grand. The twentieth century has encircled the city with a broad belt of public housing, and this too has a fascinating history that encompasses garden suburbs, early experiments in high-rise, comprehensive redevelopments and new interpretations of the tenement tradition.

Rebellious and Contrary: The Glasgow Dockers, 1853-1932 (Scottish Historical Review Monographs)
This text provides an authoritative historical account of life and work along the Glasgow waterfront in the 19th and 20th centuries. Glasgow dockers, composed mainly of Catholic Irish and Protestant Scottish Highlanders, were at the forefront of dock trade unionism in Britain in the 19th and 20th centuries. Formidable and fiercely independent, they fashioned their trade unionism to protect the casual system of employment, preserve traditional workplace practices, and defend local Scottish autonomy. In the 20th century they broke away from two national British unions because of "the tyranny of English trade unionism". Reputedly, Ernest Bevin, leader of the Transport and General Workers Union, described them as "rebellious and contrary" when they seceded and formed their own independent Scottish union in 1932.

Clydeside Capital, 1870-1920
Much of the history of the Clydeside region has been written from the point of view of shipbuilding, engineering and worker radicalizm. According to some commentators, collective action amongst workers on Clydeside took the area to the brink of revolution in the 1917-1920 period. This book examines a wide range of Clydeside industries over the 1870-1920 period.

Tobacco in Atlantic Trade: The Chesapeake, London and Glasgow, 1675-1775 (Variorum Collected Studies Series)
Before the American Revolution, tobacco was the most valuable export of British North America and, after sugar, the most valuable British import. This study explores the links between the agrarian economy of 17th and 18th century and the consumers of their tobacco in the British Isles.

In no particular order I have put together a small selection of Glasgow book.

I haven't read them all so unfortuanately I can't provide a recommendation for all books listed.

Reviews and comments:

Glasgow Victoriana: Classic Photographs by Thomas Annan
The Glasgow of today is a very different proposition from the Glasgow of the past. Today the Glasgow of the past is very difficult to imagine. But a new book is designed to make us do exactly that. Glasgow Victoriana features the classic city photographs of Thomas Annan. The legacy of Thomas Annan is similar to that of Alexander Thomson. The brilliance of both their work is undeniable.
In photographic circles Annan is one of the great urban photographers. His images of the city in the late 19th century are timeless. His work provides a unique insight into our city in a very different time.

Supporting the City: The Influence of Engineering on Glasgow's Buildings
This volume brings together a selection of Glasgow's more famous buildings and describes them from an engineering perspective. Complemented with photographs, each chapter provides an insight into the decisions faced and the methods adopted when a building of major significance is planned and constructed. From the gleaming "Armadillo" of the modern era to the Underground and symbols of Glasgow's past, each building provides an insight into the application of engineering and forms a part of the fabric of an evolving city. In many cases the authors uncover some fascinating information about how Glasgow developed, its social history and the remarkable achievements of its engineers, past and present. The book encapsulates the spirit of Glasgow and shows clearly how it became the "Second City of the Empire" and to this day retains its entrepreneurial flair and vibrancy.
