Title: Scotlands Forgotten Past A History of the Mislaid, Misplaced and Misunderstood
Author: MOFFAT ALISTAIR

A charming, lively and often amusing tour of 36 forgotten episodes and overlooked people and places of Scottish history.

Scotland’s history is full of famous kings, queens, saints and warriors. But what about its lesser-known places, people and events? In this collection of half-forgotten tales, Alistair Moffat brings their stories out of the shadows, from the clashes of proud Picts and ‘pirate kings’ in the early medieval period to the invention of tartan, whisky, Aberdeen Angus and Peter Pan. Each surprising or scandalous twist sheds a new light on the history of Scotland.
