Review:

'This is a page-turning history, lucidly written, and it is enhanced by a selection of five famous Border ballads. One of the best reads of the year, without doubt' -- Hamish Coghill * Scottish Life * 'It is the passion and pride in the land of his birth that shine through in this superb new work' * Southern Reporter * 'This is a history as exciting and dramatic as the Border ballads themselves' * Cumberland News * 'a most compelling, thought-provoking and entertaining history' * The Herald *
