Strong Brave True: Great Scots Who Changed the World … And How You Can Too

For all ages, a brilliant selection showcasing the innovations of Scots - well-known and less well-known, men and women alike - throughout the ages and in many different fields: from astronomy, philosophy and lighthouse design to technology, poetry and medicine. An afterword for everyone of ‘an enquiring mind’ offers insight on controversy and changing attitudes; for example, conflicts around Victorian exploration.

‘A wonderfully colourful, fun-packed, characterful introduction to the famous and not-so-famous Scots who made their mark on history. A must-have for any young historian or true Scot, of course! Loved it!’ - Philip Ardagh
