Description

""Sketches of Early Scotch History and Social Progress: Church Organization, the University, Home Life" by Cosmo Innes delves into the early history of Scotland, focusing on the church organization, the university, and home life. The author discusses the challenges faced by Scottish historians in adapting the country's history to British taste and overcoming prejudices against Scotland. The book explores the influence of Scottish associations on historical writing and the changing attitudes towards Scotland over time. Innes highlights the importance of translating antiquated phrases and fashions to make Scottish history more accessible to readers. The preface reflects on the struggles of Scottish writers in the past and the gradual shift in English attitudes towards Scotland, particularly due to the works of Walter Scott. The book aims to present new historical material about Scotland, its history, and its customs to a wider audience."
