STEEL BONNETS (BORDER REIVERS)

A compelling historical guide to the Anglo-Scottish Border Reivers. George MacDonald Fraser outlines a fascinating account of an almost forgotten chapter in British history, which is largely preserved in folklore. This is the tale of the raiding outlaws, who notoriously terrorised people throughout the Borders, and their continuous battle with the March Wardens, who sought to maintain Border law. Fraser is the author of The Candlemass Road and the Private McAuslan books.
