Life Among the Scots

Janet Adam Smith

3/5 ( ratings)

To many English people, Scotland is still the land of kilts, of Highland Games and red deer. But this is the Scotland of the Victorian summer tourist. The real Scotland is a nation of five million people- a nation as great and as individual in character as Norway or Denmark.

Part of the Britain in Pictures series published between 1941 and 1948 in an effort to boost morale and instill pride in a national identity during the war and early post-war years. Over 130 volumes were planned but only 126 actually appeared. The list of authors was an impressive who's who of the literary, political and arts communities of the time.
