This 3rd edition of Scotland and Britain Since 1830 has been revised to include redesign of layout in full colour, plus supplementation of certain source materials to encourage more careful selection of materials for exam practice. Key words are now highlighted (and summarised in a glossary), and there is occasional rewriting of certain areas of text to aid comprehension and recall. Finally, an extra chapter is provided on examination technique, which will aid chances of success at the highest levels.
Part of a series designed to meet the requirements of the Standard Grade History course, this book is divided into three chronological sections: 1830-80, 1880-1939 and the post-war period. Within each section a broad coverage of political, economic, social and cultural aspects is provided, supported by written and visual sources. This book is designed to cater for a broad ability range and includes extended material for credit level pupils.
