Excerpt from A Series of Excursions by Road and Rail, for Twenty Miles Around Dundee: Where to Go, and What to See Dundee is beautifully situated on the northern shore of the Firth of Tay at a distance of twelve miles from the junction of the river with the sea. At Dundee the Tay is two miles in breadth, and owing between bold and elevated shores is really a noble and majestic river. The city is built on a series of ridges rising terrace-like from the shore to the Law, a bold picturesque hill five hundred feet high, which overlooks the city on the north. Viewed from the river Dundee makes a pretty picture, and fully justifies the favourite appellation of 'f Bonnie Dundee.
