In 1513, the largest Scottish army to ever invade England was defeated by a significantly smaller English army at Flodden Field. In only two hours, the Scots lost ten thousand men. History repeated itself in 1542, when a Scottish army of 15,000 men was defeated by only 3,000 English soldiers. Despite their much smaller numbers, the English managed to take 1,200 Scottish men as prisoners. This humiliating defeat eventually contributed to the demise of King James V. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis new captivating history book takes you on a remarkable journey from the earliest extensive historical record of Scotland through the long struggle toward nationhood, all the way to Postwar Scotland. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn part 1 of this book, you will discover topics such as\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedieval Strife\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Emergence of the Scottish Nation-State\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Golden Age\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Wars of Independence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Black Death\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary, Queen of Scots: \"The Daughter of Debate\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe King of Great Britain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Union and The Scottish Enlightenment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Industrial Revolution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScottish Feminism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Loch Ness Monster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnd much, much more \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn part 2 of this book, you will discover: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood Fences; Good Neighbors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrisis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefiance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Martyr\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower Struggles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInner Strife\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Battle of Bannockburn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Worthy King\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Son of the Bruce \u0026amp; the Second War for Independence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnd much, much more \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cb\u003eSome of the topics covered in part 3 of this book include: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMysterious Origins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComing of Age in Crisis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefiance and Compliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Prophecy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUprising\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove in a Time of War\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Battle of Stirling Bridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInvading England\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Guardian of Scotland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefeat at Falkirk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn Outlaw Once More\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Execution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnd much more \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cb\u003eSo if you want to learn more about the History of Scotland, click \"add to cart\" \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 286\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 14, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42713551765567,"sku":"9781729754962","price":20.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/2fa2fd2cf42ce9404bef910165661c8a.webp?v=1765065064","url":"https:\/\/dhl-adrianne.myshopify.com\/products\/history-of-scotland-a-captivating-guide-to-scottish-history-the-wars-of-scottish-independence-and-william-wallace-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
