Scottish history is full of tales of blood and sacrifice, great heroes and fierce warriors, and above all, the constant battle between the Scots and the English for Scotland's independence. For hundreds of years, Scotland and England teetered between war, peace, and unity, and being Scottish royalty could bring as much danger as it could power and riches.

Ten stories from old Scottish folk songs tell histories and local legends in the voice of the people. Many Scottish ballads tell stories of adventure and danger, trickery and wit, valiant nobles and passionate romances.
