1000 years of Scotland Part 2, 1419-1919
Introduction
No matter the outcome of the 1st world war, the effect of the whole war on the Scottish peoples was devastating. The morale of the commons was low and many people publicily questionned the role of Scotland as whole, and in particulair it`s goverment in the war and the burdens it laid on the population. The tenous situation and a heavy weakening of Scottish trust in their goverment and their fatherland asked for measures to be taken.
The Royal University of Scotland in Edinburgh commited itselfs with the "mental health of Scottish people". The Scots ought to be "healed of their distrust and anger and fullfied with proud and trust for their nation". The medium to accomplish it would be a new book of Scottish national history, available and legible for everyone which would bring more historical knowledge while strenghten the national identity of Scottish people.
The University organized a plebiscite among respected Scottisch scientists to find an appropriate writer. Finally, two authors were chosed for the project of "1000 years of Scottish history"
P.M.Bradley, professor and holder of the chair of Medieval Gaelic Studies at the King Robert III University, was commited with the first half of the project, roughly the period to 1419.
M.E.S.McAllister, professor of Modern Socio-Economical History of British Islands at the Royal University of Scotland would write the second part of the book, the second half of the Millenium: 1419-1919. McAllister started in 1920 with his project. It would finally consist of 5 books, rougly dividing the period in fact equal parts. The first part starting at 1419 was published in 1922. His book start merely as a continuation of Bradley`s 4th book about Scotland from Robert Bruce to 100-years war.
Following the first book of M.E.S. McAllisters "1000 years of Scotland, part II 1419-1919"
