Description

The histories of nations are never as simple as their legends suggest.

George Rosie has been driven by a powerful curiosity about the country he has lived in since he was an Edinburgh schoolboy fifty years ago.

This lively mindset has established him as one of Scotland's most inquiring writers and journalists, in print and on television.

In Curious Scotland, he unearths and illuminates many neglected aspects of Scottish history in a rich collection of episodes that ranges from the Picts to the Indian tribes of North America.

What became of the sons of Robert Burns? How did Scotland influence the Ku Klux Klan? Why was a Hebridean island deliberately infested with anthrax?

The answers lie in a book which reveals the complexity, contradictions and sheer fascination of Scotland's long and strange story.
