1. 1. The Scottish Nation

   1700–2000

   

   A sweeping social, economic and political history of Scotland from the early eighteenth century through the twentieth century that explains how the Union, the Enlightenment and industrialization transformed rural society, cities, work, religion and family life; it examines the Highland Clearances, mass emigration and diaspora, urban growth and immigration, the rise of modern politics and welfare, the impact of deindustrialization, and the complex evolution of Scottish identity and nationalism, all grounded in demographic and economic evidence and written as an accessible synthesis for both scholars and general readers.
