The Identity of the Scottish Nation Reviews

Few would have the knowledge or the confidence to tackle the entire scope of this topic but William Ferguson is well endowed on both counts... The crowning achievement of a distinguished career. -- Edward J. Cowan It is definitely a study which stands for erudition and scholarship of an outstanding quality!The study delineates the whole concept of the origin-myths of Scotland and shows in a clear and convicing way the efforts of authors through the ages to present Scotland with a history that would make Scotland as ancient a nation as possible.
