Özet

Five hundred million years of Scottish history from the author of Arthur and the Lost Kingdoms: "Deserves a prominent place in the history canon" (Scots Magazine).

Covering the Ice Age to the recent Scottish Referendum, the acclaimed historian and author explores the history of the Scottish nation. Focusing on key moments such as the Battle of Bannockburn and the Jacobite risings, Moffat also features other episodes in history that are perhaps less well documented.

From prehistoric timber halls to inventions and literature, Moffat's epic explores the drama of battle, change, loss, and innovation interspersed with the lives of ordinary Scottish folk, the men and women who defined a nation.

narrator is hard to listen to at times as it feels like they are just reading a list and is so monotone. interesting and well put together book apart from that

not easiest to listen to

I might have found this book interesting if it hadn’t been for the almost monosyllabic performance from the narrator. On the up side it’s an excellent way to get to sleep if you’re struggling with insomnia.

Very poor performance

An excellent overview of Scottish history.
The audiobook undermined by the narrator’s mispronunciation of so many places and words - Brechin, Kingussie and several more.

Comprehensive, but accessible.

I found it overall to be a good book. As an introduction to Scotland's history excellent.
The narrator however surprised me as obviously a Scot her pronunciation of place names was sometimes way off.

Good listen

a good comprehensive history, but I felt that it lacked narrative, analysis or evaluation. Feels like you end up with something that leaves you without much to admire, respect or learn from.

comprehensive and informative
