Lucid and entertaining, this book follows the history of Celtic
Scotland from the ancient kingdoms of the Picts and Scots to the
downfall of Clan Donald at the end of the fifteenth century. The
roles played by Somerled and his descendants, the Canmore kings,
Edward I as the 'Hammer of the Scots', and Robert the Bruce, are
recounted, along with the impact of the Wars of Scottish
Independence, and their aftermath in the North. It was only in the
Western Highlands of Scotland that Celtic society survived in
quasi-independence as the Lordship of the Isles, until its final
forfeiture in 1493. John L Roberts adds academic accuracy to his
gift for storytelling in this hugely enjoyable and scholarly
history.
