This book is an amazing resource for the beginning genealogist tracing their Scottish roots. It lists many sources available for users to discover their roots, no matter what country you currently reside. It took a library reference course and many of the resources would be those that librarians would suggest to patrons looking into genealogy. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in getting started in discovering their family tree.

A quite interesting and informative read, I have long been a fan of GoT and have visited many parts of Scotland many times but I have to admit i was not fully aware of the history of those places, you don’t need to be a fan of GoT nor an ardent Scottish nationalist to enjoy this book, it is really enjoyable.

This is a very informative book, full of detail of a Territorial battalion in WW1, very intimate and takes one right in to the battalion so you feel you know the guys. There are many photographs, maps and cartoons in this well written, finely researched book. Well worth a read, even if you are not a Royal Scot, as many battalions went through similar lives.
