Scotland: A Concise History by Fitzroy Maclean is a highly readable account that disentangles the complex threads of Scotland's history from its beginnings to the present. This revised fifth edition includes additional chapters by Magnus Linklater, who examines the new Scottish parliament, significant events such as devolution, the transfer of taxation rights from Westminster, the release of the Lockerbie bomber, and the fallout from the 2008 global financial crash.
The book also touches on the independence referendum, the future of the United Kingdom with the Scottish National Party in power, and Britain's impending exit from the European Union. Written with wit and scholarship, it offers a rich record of Scotland's art, politics, intellectual life, and national identity.
If you're interested in a comprehensive and engaging overview of Scotland's history, this book is a great choice.
