Bloody Scotland: crime in 19th century Scotland. From the Borders to the Northern Isles, crime was never far away. Edinburgh, with its reputation for polite decorum was also the scene of poisoning and savagery; the streets of Dundee and Glasgow harboured thieves and muggers while the villages of coast and country hid wild men and vicious women. Even the seas were not safe, with pirates burying their treasure on the beaches of the Hebrides.

Crime and punishment in 19th century Glasgow. Only in Glasgow could crime mean anything from singing a seditious song to stealing an entire ship. Open the pages and see the dark side of the Empire's second city.

As I was married in Midlothian, to a Midlothian woman, and have centuries of Midlothian blood in me, this book is a particular favourite of mine. It is filled with historical anecdotes of Midlothian mining, with crime and the military added for good measure.
