Summary "Liverpool" by Dixon Scott is a descriptive account of the city, written in the early 20th century. The book explores the character, development, and essential features of Liverpool, specifically highlighting the profound relationship between the city and its defining element, the River Mersey. Scott's work focuses on various aspects of the city, including its industrial heritage, social complexities, architectural features, and the lives of its inhabitants. At the start of the book, the author establishes Liverpool's identity as a modern city that has arisen thanks to its river-based economy and vibrant commerce.
