"The History of Scotland" by Peter and Fiona Somerset Fry, 1995
“This is the history of a great nation. It is the history of the various peoples who have occupied the land of Scotland over the past 5,000 years or more, how they got there, what they have done and what marks they have left upon the story of world civilization. It is an account of the deeds of men and women, great heroes and humble folk alike, who have made a small country assume an importance far greater than its size and population would ordinarily merit. And it is a tale of the political, economic, and social progress of a people who have made the word ‘Scottish’ famous for a unique blend of bravery, cautiousness, diligence, and inventiveness.”
