Excerpt from Scotland From the Treaty of Union With England to the Present Time, (1707-1907) IT must be matter of extreme satisfaction to all Scots men that the necessity for increased attention being given to the detailed history of their country is receiving vigorous and enthusiastic attention. This is not merely a just concession 10 those feelings of patriotism which should animate the lovers of their country, but is essen tial to the proper understanding of many phases of our imperial history, in which Scotsmen have taken a lead ing part. The neglect of this aspect of the subject has done much to injure the proper understanding of Eng lish history, and it has tended to obliterate the Scottish in¿uence in the building up of the empire. It would be a singular error were such revival of interest in Scottish national history to be considered to have merely a provincial motive.
