An ground-breaking and gripping exploration of the Scottish diaspora by renowned historian James Hunter
James Hunter is the author of a number of books on Scottish history, including Culloden and the Last Clansman, A Dance Called America and Skye- The Island. He lives in Beauly, Inverness-shire.
"Extraordinary . . . no book has gone to these lengths to unpick so
many human elements of the diaspora"
*The Herald*
"Whatever your surname or origins, Scottish Exodus is a compelling,
thoughtful, witty and beautifully written book. It is Hunter's best
for at least a decade"
*The Scotsman*
"Endlessly fascinating . . . Hunter is at his best when describing
the powerful forces in Scotland - hard-times, poor land, high
rents, rapacious landlords, two-faced clan chiefs, the prospect of
better lives"
*Sunday Herald*
