description: The Traveller's History series is designed for travellers who want more historical background on the country they are visiting than can be found in a tour guide. Each volume offers a complete and authoritative history of the country from the earliest times up to the present. A Gazetteer cross-referenced to the main text pin-points the historical importance of sights and towns.Illustrated with maps and line drawings, this literate and lively series makes ideal before-you-go reading, and is just as handy tucked into suitcase or backpack.Scotland's story is chronicled by one of the country's best historians. Andrew Fisher begins with Scotland's first people and their culture and ends with Devolution and the setting up of the first Scottish parliament since 1707.
