Book excerpt: You are formally invited to the Highland wedding event of the year. These four lasses are about to meet their matches in an original digital anthology featuring stories from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Sabrina York, Lecia Cornwall, Anna Harrington, and May McGoldrick. HOW A LASS WED A HIGHLANDER by Lecia Cornwall In this retelling of The Princess and The Pea, Laird Alex Munro of Culmore has just five weeks to find a bride and marry her...or else the clan will be cursed with ill luck. Cait MacLeod finds herself caught in a clan feud, and when she tries to stop a deadly raid, she ends up as Alex Munro’s prisoner. With timing running out, is this couple meant to be? A MATCH MADE IN HEATHER by Anna Harrington She was the laird's daughter. He was nothing more than a penniless, nameless Scot with nothing to offer but his heart. Fate tore them apart, but now he's back in her life with status, money and a title. Can they let go of past hurts and find love? A MIDSUMMER WEDDING by May McGoldrick Their marriage was two decades in the making. The young, educated woman and her highland, pirate husband, betrothed when they were still children.

But her brother’s in danger of going to Newgate, and the despicable Duncan has a plan– she can claim back the money and save her brother. If she marries him...

Book Synopsis Scotland's Decision by : Charlie Jeffery
Download or read book Scotland's Decision written by Charlie Jeffery and published by Birlinn. This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Should Scotland be an independent country? Choosing an answer to that question, as Scotland's electors will on 18 September 2014, is a choice of huge significance. So how will we come to a decision? Many voters know more or less by instinct. Plenty of us are convinced that being independent is right and good for our country and not being independent is wrong. Plenty of others believe the opposite: that what is right and good is staying as part of the UK. But there are more still - probably the biggest single group - who don't have such conviction either way and are puzzling their way through what voting Yes or No might mean for them and their families. This book is for them. We have taken sixteen questions, which seem to us to be central to the referendum debate, and asked impartial experts to look at them. We do not aim to provide definitive answers - and we certainly do not intend to tell anyone how to vote - but rather to enable readers to better judge the claims that are made by either side.
Book Synopsis The Scottish Question by : James Mitchell
Download or read book The Scottish Question written by James Mitchell and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2014-06-12 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over half a century ago, a leading commentator suggested that Scotland was very unusual in being a country which was, in some sense at least, a nation but in no sense a state. He asked whether something 'so anomalous' could continue to exist in the modern world. The Scottish Question considers how Scotland has retained its sense of self, and how the country has changed against a backdrop of fundamental changes in society, economy, and the role of the state over the course of the union. The Scottish Question has been a shifting mix of linked issues and concerns including national identity; Scotland's constitutional status and structures of government; Scotland's distinctive party politics; and everyday public policy. In this volume, James Mitchell explores how these issues have interacted against a backdrop of these changes. He concludes that while the independence referendum may prove an important event, there can be no definitive answer to the Scottish Question. The Scottish Question offers a fresh interpretation of what has made Scotland distinctive and how this changed over time, drawing on an array of primary and secondary sources. It challenges a number of myths, including how radical Scottish politics has been, and suggests that an oppositional political culture was one of the most distinguishing features of Scottish politics in the twentieth century. A Scottish lobby, consisting of public and private bodies, became adept in making the case for more resources from the Treasury without facing up to some of Scotland's most deep-rooted problems.
Download or read book Great Scot written by David Leggat and published by Black & White Publishing. This book was released on 2012-10-10 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A remarkable record of fifteen trophies in thirteen seasons at Ibrox, plus two with East Fife, should be enough to give any manager legendary status. Especially when the same man became the first manager in Britain to take his club to a European final. Scot Symon did all that and more - and yet he is now an almost forgotten Rangers manager. Scot Symon actually took Rangers to two European finals and had he won one, his place in history would have been assured. Instead, he became Ibrox's forgotten man, his contribution woefully neglected. Now, in Great Scot, David Leggat tells the fascinating story of Scot Symon and shows how he helped shape the history of Rangers, managing legendary players such as John Greig, Willie Henderson and the greatest of them all, Jim Baxter - who gave his genius to Symon's most outstanding team. And among the biggest names in Scottish football, past and present, who tell their Symon stories, there is a heartfelt tribute to Scot Symon from the last signing he made for Rangers - Sir Alex Ferguson. With such support, Great Scot sets out to show that James Scotland Symon was one of the most remarkable managers Scotland has ever produced and why he now deserves his rightful, prominent place in the history of Rangers and Scottish football.

Book Synopsis Impaled Upon a Thistle: Scotland since 1880 by : Ewen Cameron
Download or read book Impaled Upon a Thistle: Scotland since 1880 written by Ewen Cameron and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-30 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ewen Cameron explores the political debate between unionism, liberalism, socialism and nationalism, and the changing political relationship between Scotland and the United Kingdom. He sets Scottish experience alongside the Irish, Welsh and European, and considers British dimensions of historical change--involvement in two world wars, imperial growth and decline, for example - from a Scottish perspective. He relates political events to trends and movements in the economy, culture and society of the nation's regions--borders, lowlands, highlands, and islands. Underlying the history, and sometimes impelling its ambitions, are the evolution and growth of national self-confidence and identity which fundamentally affected Scotland's destiny in the last century. Dr Cameron ends by considering how such forces may transform it in this one. Like the period it describes this book has politics at its heart. The recent upsurge of scholarship and publication, backed by the author's extensive primary research, underpin its vivid and well-paced narrative.

Book Synopsis The Scotland Bill by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Scottish Affairs Committee
Download or read book The Scotland Bill written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Scottish Affairs Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-03-21 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scottish Affairs Committee report on the Scotland Bill, states that the Bill achieves its stated purpose of increasing the financial accountability of the Scottish Parliament, but identifies a number of areas for improvement. The committee stresses the need for transparency and calls for the figures used to calculate all parts of the financial arrangements of the Scotland Bill to be opened up for scrutiny, in order to enhance decision-making. It says it intends to keep this area under review and requests regular reports on progress. At the heart of the Government's proposals are the provisions to give the Scottish Parliament the powers to raise a single rate of Scottish income tax, and to reduce the block grant accordingly. The committee says it is a major omission that neither the Bill nor the Command Paper provides an adequate explanation as to how the balance between income tax and the reduction to the block grant will be calculated. The Government should have put forward a considered proposal on the principles and methodology of this system, and detailed consideration should be given, as a matter of urgency, to how the reduction in the block grant will be calculated. Provisions in the Bill for both capital and revenue borrowing powers are to be welcomed, but the committee notes the concern of witnesses that the limits are too low. It recommends that the Government, in close consultation with the Scottish Parliament and with the committee, reconsiders the proposed limits, and it suggests as a starting point for discussion the amount of £1bn, with a limit of £500 million in any one year.The report also highlights the committee's intention to continue its scrutiny role as the proposals are implemented. In particular, it intends to closely monitor the roles of the UK Government, HMRC and the Office for Budget Responsibility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book should be read with a wee whisky or tea. If you are ready to laugh and help get out the present and get to 60 years ogo be my guest. It will take you back to a time in Scotland when everybody liked a story as they do now. The stories in this book happened when Billy and I were charging through our childhood. All the stories are 95% true. 5% Imagination. Was it Einstien Who said imagination is more important than knowledge. It has been commented on how most people love the Scottish language. This book is about the Glasgow accent. A true story happened when I dropped Billy in the deep end when our teacher miss Gleason explained that the priest had heard everything before in confession and not to worry about asking him questions. I of course told the priest Billy wanted to ask him a question. After the question the class went wild with shock. Billy and I went on a school trip to Aberdeen and on the train met two girls from another school. We made a date at the age of 14 to meet them in Aberdeen. What happened then and the results could only be described as over the moon. Midge raking is another tale not to mention visiting my uncle Jackie who was a butcher who when my eyes were shut dropped a sheep’s eye in my open hand. When Billy asked for the eye in his hand all hell broke out side the shop with people going crazy. Visiting my grandad and seeing his leg he lost in WW1 was a highlight especially when he was robbed of his leg on nightshift. Paddy was a super dog and when he bit off the policeman’s pants goes down on history. He was Irish and hated Scottish policemen. Going to school one day we met up with the wee Italion Leo. His stories about his capture by a Scotsman who also captured 40000 others makes my heart bleed. Paddy to the rescue Peer group pressure The Big Steamer Hogmannae. Stories of Billy and me
