Summary:

"Scotland's astonishing architectural heritage is one of the defining images of the country. This book asks what exactly makes 'Scottish' architecture, carrying the story from the royal palaces of the Stewart kings when Scottish architecture began to develop the confidence and range that made it distinctive, through to the present day with its new flowering of creativity following on from years of post-war austerity and municipal planning."--Jacket.
