Originally published in 1978, but now re-issued with a new Preface
by James Mitchell, this volume traces the rise of the SNP, with
special emphasis on explaining the increase of the National Party
vote in Scotland from the early 1960s to the late 1970s. The book
draws much of its information from interviews with members and
ex-members of the SNP, including some who helped to found the party
in 1928. In describing the movement and giving an account of its
main features, the author begins with a discussion of various
aspects of Scottish society which have contributed to the growth of
nationalism. These include the political developments of the Labour
movement, the economic history of 20th Century Scotland the
development of youth culture and in particular, the interest in
folk music, as well as developments in the Church, the army, and
the press.
