Book excerpt: Johnstone's account is of the long-established families of the Dumfriesshire region of Scotland and, secondarily, of the so-called "Border Wars" which were waged from the twelfth century between the dominant Scottish families of South Dumfriesshire and the English in North Cumberland.

The author interweaves the stormy saga of Scottish-English wars, invasions, and intrigues with the fortunes and descents of the following principal families of the region: Armstrong, Baliol, Bell, Boswell, Bruce, Carlile/Carlyle, Carruthers, Clark, Corry, Crichton, Cummings, Douglas, Dunwiddie, Fergusson, Fleming, Gladstone, Gordon, Graham(e), Irving, Jardine, Johnstone, Kennedy, Kerr, Kirkpatrick, Laird, Maitland, Maxwell, Murray, Scott, Sharp, Stuart/Stewart, Trumble, and Wallace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C. L. Johnstone offers here a history of Scotland's noble families through the centuries, noting how they shaped the history and politics of the nation. This edition includes all the illustrations of the ruins that were once their seats of power, and the family trees. A detailed and intensive examination of the family ties which bound Scottish communities together and strengthened the country's resolve against England during periods of enmity or war, this book discusses the various noble houses in detail. Their evolution through the centuries ? the rise of some to prominence, the fall of others to obscurity ? is in many ways the story of Scotland as a nation state with its own identity and culture. The border wars between Scotland and England are the later focus of this book; taking place in the late 17th and early 18th centuries, the Jacobite rebellion embroiled several of Scotland's longstanding noble houses in conflict.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is the history not only of a region in Scotland but also of the great families--many of them Anglo-Norman--who settled in the border lands between England and Scotland and who played a major role in the disturbances which kept this county and others in constant turmoil. It begins with a chapter on the Norman settlers, including the Bruce, Carlile, Douglas, and Correy families, and then proceeds to study the turbulent years before the accession of the Stewarts, including the rivalry of the Baliols, the Bruces, the Stewarts, and others. Such families as Kirkpatrick, Johnstone, Kerr, and Crichton all fought for position within a rapidly changing world. The history continues through the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, detailing the evolving affairs of the Graham, Gordon, Jardine, Comyn, Fleming, Murray, Irving, Charteris, Fergusson, Grierson, Herries, Boswell, and Bell families. It concludes with the reigns of James VI and his sons and the beginning of the expulsion of "reiver" families to Ireland"--Container.
