Omschrijving

Scotland has one of the most dramatic histories in Europe: a small nation that successfully resisted conquest by the Roman Empire, fought for its independence against England for centuries, produced some of the most significant thinkers of the Enlightenment, and eventually entered a political union that remains contested to this day. From the ancient Pictish tribes and the Viking Age to the Jacobite risings and the industrial revolution, Scotland's story is rich and often surprising.

This book provides a reliable and readable account of Scottish history from ancient times to the present, covering the key events and figures that shaped the nation. It gives attention to the Wars of Independence, the Reformation, the union with England, the Highland Clearances, and the Scottish Enlightenment, as well as the more recent debates around devolution and independence. It is written for a general English-speaking readership with an interest in British and European history.

Contents:

Reader review: "A well-written and balanced history that covers everything from the Romans to the modern independence debate. Highly recommended." -- A. MacLeod
