In a breathtaking hundred pages, Tony takes you from the arrival of
Mesolithic people in the Highlands of Scotland in 6000BC, through
Scotland's story right up to the Scottish Parliament of today.
Enjoy learning about the transition from hunter gathering to
farming, the invasion of the Picts and their long rule before the
Scots muscled into Argyll. As the Scottish nation emerges, learn of
elected kings, the injustices of William Shakespeare's
assassination of Macbeth's character and the effects on Scotland of
the conquering of England by the Normans in 1066AD. After
Normanisation comes the annexation of Scotland by Edward I, William
Wallace, followed by the true Braveheart's struggle for freedom and
eventual independence, only to have it all literally given away to
the arch enemy by Scotland's own king less than three hundred years
later. Finally, experience the pathos of the Jacobite uprisings but
then thrill to the possibility of the nation rising once more as
the new millennium dawns.
