Penguin History
For a generation, this book - intelligent, fair-minded and accurate - has been acclaimed as the definitive one-volume history of a great nation.
It shows how Duncan (1034-40) emerged from 'the imion of the four peoples' as the first king of a united Scotland and provides detailed, reign-by-reign accounts from then on. Close consideration is given to the Wars of Independence, the Reformation and religious struggles, the union of the crowns under James VI and I, the 1707 Act of Union, the Jacobite risings and the 'reforms' of the Victorian era.

This second edition takes the story up to the political crisis of the 1970s - events that offered ample evidence both of Scotland's ability to adapt to the times and its 'continuing significance and vitality as a human community'.
'A capital introduction to the national stoiy from mesolithic settlers to modern planners Outsiders writing on Scottish history are often
patronizing and inaccurate. Native historians are inclined to be apologetic. Professor Mackie is free from either bias' - Scotsman
'Professor Mackie's close-packed narrative is almost a reference work, comprehensive, thoroughly indexed and full of learning He has a grim task to catch up with our ignorance, and he does it with a single-minded magnificence' - The Times Literary Supplement Vissza
