Scottish Store: Scotland History Books Highlanders: A History Of The Gaels Written by John MacLeod Published by Trafalgar Square Paperback 324 pages 1998   In this sweeping chronicle, award-winning journalist John Macleod offers an insider's view of the Scottish Highlands, from the Stone Age to the present day. In this illuminating, wonderfully readable study, John Macleod unfolds the history of the land and people of the Scottish Highlands. From Mesolithic man, through the Celts, the Vikings, and the Lords of the Isles to the Stuart monarch, Macleod examines the terrible events following Culloden and the forced emigrations, the Evangelical Movement, and the Crofter's War. Bringing the story right up to date, he looks at the current decline of the Gaels and the struggle of the Highland people to redefine themselves in a changing world. A History Of Scotland Written by Bruce Lenman, Geoffrey Parker & J. D. MacKie Published by Viking Press Paperback -- pages 1992   This book is written as more of a story of Scotland than a history. It gives an incredible overview of Scotland, and explains why those Scots who have become expats love their country despite all of the problems they have had (Highland clearances). For anyone who has been to Scotland this is a great way to learn so much about the country, and their courageous and proud people. back to the Scotland Books Page Last Updated: 22 Sep 2017 at 03:34 UTC You are visitor since 29 Apr 2002 page design & content copyright © 2002 Andrew S Harris return to britannia.org
