History Of Scotland From The Earliest Period To The Present Time
Edited by Henry White
Published by Oliver & Boyd: Edinburgh c1870 (undated - inscription dated 1870)

" Henry White's History of Scotland offers a compact yet authoritative survey of Scotland's long and turbulent national story, written for educational use during the late Victorian period. Drawing upon classical sources, medieval chronicles and more modern historical research, White presents a clear chronological narrative beginning with prehistoric settlement and early tribal society, moving through the rise of the Scottish monarchy, the Wars of Independence, the struggles of the Stuart dynasty, and the nation's eventual political union with England. His style is succinct and instructive, shaped to guide school readers through the major turning points that defined Scotland's evolving identity.

The work continues into the modern era, covering the religious upheavals of the Reformation, the Jacobite risings, and the social and economic transformations of industrial Scotland. This Oliver & Boyd edition—contemporary with its 1870 inscription—captures the Victorian drive to present national history in an accessible, moral and patriotic form. It remains an appealing volume for collectors of Scottish history, those interested in Victorian educational imprints, and readers seeking a structured, period-authentic introduction to Scotland's past.
