It traces Burton's remarkably diverse social and intellectual acquaintance, and equally varied literary endeavours, from his early life and education in 1820s Aberdeen to his increasingly prominent profile in the Edinburgh of Scott, Jeffrey and Cockburn. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA detailed assessment of Burton's History of Scotland (1873) uncovers major themes which are then related to his formative experiences in the social and cultural world of his time. This analysis - and an examination of the enthusiastic reception of the work at home and abroad - overturn orthodox assumptions of the 'death' of Scottish history in the 19th century. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Craig Beveridge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474491472\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474491471\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.67d","brand":"Craig Beveridge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44616553988351,"sku":"9781474491471","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_80bb94b4-1207-4fa2-b200-9add5069910b.jpg?v=1703020977","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/recovering-scottish-history-craig-beveridge-9781474491471","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
