Scottish Nationhood before the SNP, 1707–1934
The Lyon in WaitingThis book examines the complex and often turbulent relationship between Scotland and England from the early eighteenth century to the 1930s, shedding light on the historical and political forces that have shaped their union. It delves into the causes of violent disputes and the persistent push towards total integration, while highlighting the political movements and individuals who resisted the erosion of Scotland’s institutions and distinct identity. Key topics include the Jacobite Rebellions, the Scottish Enlightenment, and the Highland Clearances, as well as the influence of Ireland and the challenges posed by industrialisation and emigration. The book also explores literary and architectural expressions of Scottish nationhood, featuring the works of Robert Burns, Walter Scott, and Hugh MacDiarmid, alongside iconic structures like the Wallace Monument, and the Scottish National War Memorial. Readers gain insight into the rise of early 'Home Rule' movements and the formation of the Scottish National Party (SNP) amidst post-war economic depression and social upheaval. This comprehensive exploration is essential for anyone interested in understanding the historical roots of contemporary political dynamics in Scotland. Scholars, historians, and political enthusiasts alike will find this book an invaluable resource for exploring the enduring complexities of Anglo-Scottish relations.

On the Road from Vietnam to IraqAn unforgettable account by journalist Scott Wallace of how misguided and illegal U.S. policies in Central America during the 1980s resulted in more than 300,000 deaths, created many of today’s problems along America’s southern border, and helped perpetuate a legacy of hawkish militarism at the expense of democracy and diplomacy.

The Unconquered
The extraordinary true story of a journey into the deepest recesses of the Amazon to track one of the planet's last uncontacted indigenous tribes. Even today there remain tribes in the far reaches of the Amazon rainforest that have avoided contact with modern civilization. Deliberately hiding from the outside world, they are the last survivors of an ancient culture that predates the arrival of Columbus in the New World. In this gripping first-person account of adventure and survival, author Scott Wallace chronicles an expedition into the Amazon's uncharted depths, discovering the rainforest's secrets while moving ever closer to a possible encounter with one such tribe-the mysterious flecheiros, or "People of the Arrow," seldom-glimpsed warriors known to repulse all intruders with showers of deadly arrows. On assignment for National Geographic, Wallace joins Brazilian explorer Sydney Possuelo at the head of a thirty-four-man team that ventures deep into the unknown in search of the tribe. Possuelo's mission is to protect the Arrow People. But the information he needs to do so can only be gleaned by entering a world of permanent twilight beneath the forest canopy.Danger lurks at every step as the expedition seeks out the Arrow People even while trying to avoid them. Along the way, Wallace uncovers clues as to who the Arrow People might be, how they have managed to endure as one of the last unconquered tribes, and why so much about them must remain shrouded in mystery if they are to survive. Laced with lessons from anthropology and the Amazon's own convulsed history, and boasting a Conradian cast of unforgettable characters-all driven by a passion to preserve the wild, but also wracked by fear, suspicion, and the desperate need to make it home alive-The Unconquered reveals this critical battleground in the fight to save the planet as it has rarely been seen, wrapped in a page-turning tale of adventure.
