5.0 out of 5 stars Makes me proud to be a scot!, 24 Dec 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: The Mark of the Scots: Their Astonishing Contributions to History, Science, Democracy, Literature and the Arts (A Birch Lane Press book) (Hardcover)
Duncan A Bruce has written an eminently readable book that will surely appeal to even those of non-scots extraction.To those of us who are scots,this fact-filled,yet fluid book gives us cause for immense pride.The list of Scottish achievements is simply unbelieveable.Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best thing I've read in years., 9 Feb 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Mark of the Scots: Their Astonishing Contributions to History, Science, Democracy, Literature and the Arts (A Birch Lane Press book) (Hardcover)
This is the definitive book on Scottish achievement. An exhaustive research, but entertainingly written. A must! And a bargain for any one of Scottish blood.

5.0 out of 5 stars The most enjoyable history book ever written., 29 May 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Mark of the Scots: Their Astonishing Contributions to History, Science, Democracy, Literature and the Arts (A Birch Lane Press book) (Hardcover)
I know of nothing ever written of any people that has been as facinating and enlightening as Duncan Bruce's "The Mark of the Scots". This should be required reading for all, especially in schools in the USA. The complete story of the part which the Scots have played in world history is an unblievable but true fact which should be made known to everyone.
