What did it mean to be a Scot in an age marked by the movement of
people and the flow of information? This revised and updated volume
of the "New History of Scotland" series explores a period of
intense identity formation in Scotland. Examining the 'us and them'
mentality, it delivers an account of the blended nature of Scottish
society through the transformations of the industrial era from 1832
to 1914. Alongside the history of Scotland's national identity, and
its linked political and social institutions, is an account of the
changing nature of society within Scotland and the relentless eddy
of historical developments from home and away. Where previous
histories of this period have focused on industry, this book will
take a closer look at the people that helped to form Scottish
national identity. Graeme Morton shows that identity was a key
element in explaining Industrial Scotland, charting the interplay
between the micro and the macro and merging the histories of the
Scots and the Scottish nation. Key features: popular and well-liked
student series; completely updated and revised with new research;
and, charts the birth of modern Scottish identity.
