β¦ Synopsis
A Scottish lost treasures collection of classic Scottish historical novels, each offering a superbly plotted and descriptive narrative set against some of the bloodiest periods in Scotland's past.

The best example I've seen of how curation and presentation can bring old books to new audiences" - The Observer "This strikes me as a fantastic venture, and one I hope will expand further" - Professor Willy Maley, University of Glasgow, Scotland on Sunday
