PEOPLE AND GROWING
Dundee’s fascinating history of whaling is still largely untapped. It inspired Mary Shelley when she wrote Frankenstein and led directly to the amazing exploits of Scott, Shackleton etc. Shackleton even once tried to become MP for Dundee! The Tay Whale in the McManus is awesome and there’s loads of animals brought back from the Arctic by the whalers in the university’s zoology museum.
