from Three Rivers Press
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
This is a very well-organized book on the intellectual influence Scottish culture has had on the western world, most notably the United States and the United Kingdom. Despite the misleading title, this is not one of those "ethnic pride" books. Instead, Herman focuses on the specific intellectual... more info

4.Mary Queen of ScotsMary Queen of Scots
from Delta
Price: $13.60

Customer Review:
Overall, this is a well-written and well-researched biography, although not objective enough about its subject. I appreciated the beautiful writing and the thorough scholarship of this book, although in the end I could not share the author's unqualified admiration for Mary Queen of Scots.

from The University of North Carolina Press
Price: $17.05

Customer Review:
Leyburn and the Scots-Irish
Leyburn's book (1962) is now "the grand old man" of Scots-Irish historiography, having easily displaced Henry Jones Ford's "The Scotch-Irish in America" (1915) - a book that was the previous generation's best study of the subject. Leyburn was one of the earliest... more info

However, here in "Steel Bonnets" his hands are tied by... more info

8.The Sisters of Henry VIII: The Tumultuous Lives of Margaret of Scotland and Mary of FranceThe Sisters of Henry VIII: The Tumultuous Lives of Margaret of Scotland and Mary of France
from Da Capo Press
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:
The title of this book is misleading. The sisters are mentioned in the book, but you really have to hunt to find much about them. And what got me off to a bad start was the second sentence of the introduction. Maria Perry says (and I'd like to know why she thinks ths----) that few people realize... more info
