FROM THE EDITOR
Welcome to the first issue of 2021 – our 20th anniversary year! As always, the magazine covers centuries of history and archaeology and whilst we might not yet be able to visit museums, galleries and other attractions as freely as usual, it’s great to see that history and research projects are continuing despite the restrictions.
This issue sees the launch of two new series: Spotlight: Jacobites (pg 6) and a five-part series on Scotland’s second war of independence (pg 10), both of which feature brand new research, that we know readers enjoy so much.
It was great to see so many readers attend our online Jacobite talk by Professor Murray Pittock in November.This is the first in a series of talks and webinars that we’ll be running over the coming months. Sign up to our newsletter at http://scot.sh/janfeb21 to make sure you get all the details as they are announced.
Very best wishes from all at History Scotland for a wonderful festive season and a happy new year.
Warm wishes
