Cut and Run

Cover has light wear, faded spine with reading crease, pages are clean, tanned, name and addressed embossed on first page. Originally published in 1962. Cut and Run is a story of the Glasgow slums, its streets, its people, its pubs, gaols, betting shops, brothels, dance halls, and the teeming life behind the grimy walls of the great grim tenements, where lust and violence walk hand in hand. Author Bill McGhee was born and raised amid the sprawling squalor he describes, and there is a pitiless authenticity in his picture of the seamy side of a great city seen through uncoloured glasses.
