Richard Killane, "Illustrated History of Scotland" - Many photos! Recommended reference book to learn about the relationship between England and Scotland.
The book is characterized, first and foremost, by its abundance of photographs and drawings, which make it easy to visualize the history. And the emphasis is on the relationship with England. As a lover of Shakespeare, I was particularly interested in the flow of English royalty from the 16th to the 17th century, so this was very interesting to me because I could see England from a different perspective, that of Scotland.
