About The Book

«The history may be hidden, but it’s there if you look — — and it’s well worth finding.»

— -Daily Mail (Scotland)

Scottish history isn’t just about Robert Burns and Braveheart. In fact, it’s far more complex than some might think. In Curious Scotland, journalist George Rosie digs deeper into Scotland’s past, unearthing some of the lesser known but more surprising details, including:

·        Who was behind the military’s «Operation Vegetarian»?

·        What became of the Glasgow Frankenstein?

·        Why do Scots always spit on a certain Edinburgh street?

·        And how did John Ross become the greatest Cherokee chieftain?

Rosie answers these and other questions, illuminating corners of Scottish lore that have never been explored before. With a dry wit and unflagging curiosity, he shows us that Scotland’s history is full of far stranger stuff than your average plate of haggis.
