Answer by guiri
Yes.

Magnus Magnusson did a good history of Scotland that is surprisingly readable. ‘Scotland , The story of a Nation’, ISBN 978-0-00-653191-3 at 16 pounds. Magnusson wrote a number of good history books.

Antonia Fraser wrote a good biography on Mary Queen of Scots.

You can also find books on the kings and queens of Scotland in some bargain bookshops.

A question from : Question about Scottish names?
Did you ever notice names like MacQueen MacLeon etc? Why are the letters Q and L capitalized? What does “Mac” stand for?

Selected answer:

Answer by SerenemStarsailor
Mac means ‘son of’, so MacQueen would mean The son of Queen and MacLeon would be ‘The son of Leon’ and MacEverret would be the son of Everret. Essentially they are two separate words so both parts are capitalitized.

A question from some dude: what are some good Scottish names for a baby boy?

Selected answer:

Answer by Megan
Here you go! Good luck! I personally like Cameron and Logan.
BTW, you should have a few names picked out because once you see your baby, you might not like the name you “assigned” to him.
If you google Scottish boy names, you’ll find loads.
