Edinburgh : a history of the city by Michael Fry

Michael Fry's Edinburgh: A History of the City, felt somewhat disorganized, going back and forth in time. Its 388 pages are in eight chapters, seven of which are headed by quotes about the city from famous Scots. It has 18 pages of footnotes and a 13-page index.
