Paperback. Condition: Good. How can a politically disabled nation create a history for itself? James Campbell sets out across Scotland to answer his own question. From the bustle of the Edinburgh Festival and the sleaziness of Sin City Aberdeen to the depopulated Highlands (the last great European wilderness), a history of thoughts, fears, and aspirations evolves from his conversations with the local inhabitants.
