About This Item
Penguin, United Kingdom, 1970. Reprint. Softcover. Fair Condition. Size: 12mo Small. 406 pages. Text body is clean, and free from previous owner annotation, underlining and highlighting. Binding is tight, covers and spine fully intact. Heavy foxing throughout. Edges foxed and browned. This book is available and ready to be shipped.. A History of Scotland shows how Duncan (1034-49) emerged from 'the union of the four peoples' as the first king of a united Scotland and provides detailed, reign-by-reign accounts from then on. Close consideration is given to the Wars of Independence, the Reformation and religious struggles, the union of the crowns under James VI and I, the 1707 Act of Union, the Jacobite risings and the 'reforms' of the Victorian era. Above all Professor Mackie reveals how the Scots long pursued an independent line--in religion, law, culture and foreign policy--that helped them keep at bay in turn the Romans, the French and the English.
