The Birlinn Companion to Scottish History av Ian Donnachie
This is chiefly lives of people with some battles and occasiinal general entries (e.g. "sects"). It has some medieval entries (chiefy kings) but is strongest after 1500, especially 1600 to 1800.
This was the first major study of the development of the brewing industry in Scotland and is an essential read for the brewery historian. The text, while academic in tone, is accessible and is supported by numerous diagrams and tables. Much has happened since its publication, particularly in terms of the disappearance of most of the major commercial brewers and the resurgence in micro-breweries, but it remains a cornerstone work. Indexed.
