Description: Christopher Harvie one of Scotland's leading historians and political writers takes a long view of Scotland: its land people and culture. Scotland: A History sweeps from the earliest settlements to the new Parliament of 1999 and beyond. It describes the unique multi - ethnic kingdom which emerged from the Dark Ages the small proud nation manoeuvring among the great powers of medieval Europe and the radical reformation which forced a compromise with its mighty southern neighbour. Harvie follows Scotland's tense partnership with England for over 400 years through dual monarchy and union enlightenment and empire industrialization and de - industrialization. First published over a decade ago this new edition has been extended - at both ends - to include recent discoveries about Scotland's early pre - historic settlements through to a new final chapter covering the history politics and economics of the country under the Holyrood Parliament - and the background to the controversy over the Independence Referendum of 2014.
