Scotland: Her Story

From the saintly but severe Queen Margaret to today's first minister Nicola Sturgeon, here is a unique perspective on dramatic national events as well as ordinary life. Drawing on court and kirk records, exchequer rolls and treasurer's accounts, diaries and memoirs, chap books and newspapers, government reports and eye-witness statements, Rosemary Goring presents the story of Scotland told exclusively by women, offering a tantalising view of what happened to them, what it meant, and how it felt.
