The
Scottish People 800-1450 - People of a Kingdom
This CD-ROM charts how Scotland,
once divided by cultural differences, religious
conflict and tribal feuding, began to emerge as
a united kingdom. The story is told from four
geographical perspectives - the eastern trading
ports, the north and its Norse links, the southern
border with England and the Irish west - an excellent
beginning for local study.
