SCOTTISH QUOTATIONS (PB)

The Scots have a reputation for clarity of thought - and the vigour with which it is expressed. This collection draws on Scotland’s history and experiences from Roman Scotland to the present day. It covers a vast range of subject matter and demonstrates a remarkable variety of moods and tones, from the literary to the colloquial and bawdy. Packed with sharp observation and humour, and by turns meditative, triumphant, tragic, accusatory and tender, it reveals the spirit of Scotland in a unique way.
