Favorite Scottish Book/Novel/Series?

[mookien]

Almost anything by Sir Walter Scott or Nigel Tranter (particularly the so-called Waverley novels, or "The Bruce Trilogy").

And of course, for rigorous, brutal, realistic, and accurate Scottish history there's the inimitable "Compton MacKenzie", particularly his chilling account of the flying saucer hitting the Loch Ness monster and all the subsequent barbarity (and isle hopping) it unleashed.

Finally, for text-book history (for those of you who actually believe it), there's Neil Oliver's "A History of Scotland", the advantage of which being, if you get tired of reading, you can always watch the movie.
