In 1513, the largest Scottish army to ever invade England was defeated by a significantly smaller English army at Flodden Field. In only two hours, the Scots lost ten thousand men. History repeated itself in 1542, when a Scottish army of 15,000 men was defeated by only 3,000 English soldiers. Despite their much smaller numbers, the English managed to take 1,200 Scottish men as prisoners. This humiliating defeat eventually contributed to the demise of King James V.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis new captivating history book takes you on a remarkable journey from the earliest extensive historical record of Scotland through the long struggle toward nationhood, all the way to Postwar Scotland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eScottish History: A Captivating Guide to the History of Scotland\u003c\/em\u003e, you will discover topics such as\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eMedieval Strife\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Emergence of the Scottish Nation-State\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Golden Age\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Wars of Independence\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Black Death\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMary, Queen of Scots: \"The Daughter of Debate\"\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe King of Great Britain\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Union and The Scottish Enlightenment\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Industrial Revolution\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eScottish Feminism\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Loch Ness Monster\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAnd much, much more \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSo if you want to discover more about the startling history of Scotland, click \"add to cart\" \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 102\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.31 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 10, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52703346032973,"sku":"9781647483180","price":42.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/3304\/7117\/files\/L2FEVHN5VWlxY3A4MHBZc0FYLzdvQT09.webp?v=1762251625","url":"https:\/\/belfastbooks.us\/products\/scottish-history-a-captivating-guide-to-the-history-of-scotland-hardcover","provider":"belfastbooks.us","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
