History Books On Scotland?

[Bugbear]

All right, thank you, I will get the Magnusson book. I'll also keep an eye out for any other of his books.

I still would like to know if anyone has an opinion on the James Buchan book, or even the author.

* The Rathdown post jogged my memory, and it turns out I already have two Magnus Magnusson related books.

Laxdaela Saga, translated by Hermann Palsson and Magnus Magnusson; Penguin Books, 1969.
King Harald's Saga, translated by the same two, and that is also published by Penguin Books, 1966; they're both Penguin Classics.
I had those with, Hrafnkel's Saga and Other Icelandic Stories, translated only by Hermann Palsson (Penguin, 1971), so I didn't notice Magnusson contributed.


I compulsively collect sagas, myths, mythic tails, folk lore, and legends... Serious problem.
