This is the book for which I am now asking opinions:
Crowded With Genius: The Scottish Enlightenment: Edinburgh's Moment Of The Mind, by James Buchan; published, I think, by Harper Collins, in 2003.
*** I will go ahead and get this book:
Scotland: The Story of a Nation, by Magnus Magnusson, and I think it's published by Grove Press, in 2000. ***
Is anyone familiar with it, and is it a good book history wise? The description says it covers antiquity through to the beginning of the seventeen-hundreds, and a little bit on up to the twentieth century.
I already read Arthur Herman's, How the Scots Invented the Modern World.
