This book was so well written it read like a good story rather than some boring factual text!
I found it clear and easy to follow and loved the fact that it backed up and explained other books I have read recently. I have always admired the Scots and I have noticed in my own personal travels that Scots names are everywhere-Boot hill near tombstone AZ, Vancover BC on the street names, and driving across the USA in the names of towns in MD, PEN, NY, you name the state they have been there!! Our country and Canada probably wouldnt exist in the same way with the hardy intelligent Scots!
