The Edinburgh History of Scotland
The New Edinburgh History of Scotland comprises ten textbooks exploring the development of Scotland from earliest times to the present. Scotland’s evolution as a political entity provides the structure of each volume. Combining chronological narrative with analytical rigour, each book offers an informative and accessible account of a defined period in Scottish history. Authors make full use of the explosion of scholarly research that has taken place over the last three decades.
This series tells the story of Scotland as a political entity, but it also promotes an awareness of broader social, cultural and religious change and is informed by a richly textured understanding of the diversity of the Scots’ historical experience. To talk of the Scots – or the Scottish nation – is often misleading as local loyalty and regional diversity have more frequently characterised Scotland than any sense of ‘national’ solidarity. The authors in this series show that there are other and more revealing ways of capturing the distinctiveness of Scottish experience.
