Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This captivating volume immerses readers in Edinburgh's grand story, showcasing its role as a locus of power, culture, and dramatic historical events. The author invites us to explore Edinburgh Castle's storied past, from its earliest days as a Celtic fortress to its dramatic capture by William Wallace. Here, the famed Black Dinner took place, a scene of treachery and brutality, followed by the stirring escape of the Duke of Albany. We are transported to the heart of the royal court at Holyrood Palace, where monarchs like Mary, Queen of Scots, and James IV presided over a vibrant and often turbulent world. Political intrigues, lavish ceremonies, and tragic events such as Riccio's murder within the palace walls come alive. Going beyond the immediate history of the city, the book traces Edinburgh's literary and intellectual significance, recounting the Enlightenment's flowering during the eighteenth century, when luminaries like David Hume and Adam Smith made the city a center of ideas. The author illuminates the city's influence on renowned figures like Robert Louis Stevenson and Walter Scott, who immortalized it in their literary creations. With stunning historical detail, this book unravels Edinburgh's rich past and the architectural and cultural legacy it has left upon Scotland's storied capital. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
