Who Built Scotland Paperback Promo

In Who Built Scotland, experience a new history of Scotland told through its places. Writers Kathleen Jamie, Alexander McCall Smith, Alistair Moffat, James Robertson and James Crawford pick twenty-five buildings to tell the story of the nation.

Travelling across the country, from abandoned islands and lonely glens, to the heart of our modern cities, these five authors seek out the diverse narrative of the Scottish people.

Who Built Scotland is a landmark exploration of Scotland's social, political and cultural histories. Moving from Neolithic families, exiled hermits and ambitious royal dynasties to highland sheiling girls, peasant poets, Enlightenment philosophers and iconoclastic artists. It places the people, their ideas and their passions at the heart of their architecture and archaeology. This is the remarkable story how the Scottish people have shaped their buildings and how their buildings, in turn, have shaped them.
