Celebrating for the first time the raw materials that have been employed throughout history to form Scotland's buildings and landmarks, this visually impressive study explains why Scotland's traditionally built environment draws visitors from around the world, and offers inhabitants a sense of place and identity. With experts providing discussion on the scope of materials used?including stone, timber, iron, clay, and slate?the socioeconomic stories behind the materials, how they have been utilized over time, and the geographical variations throughout the country, this extensively photographed and informative account highlights some of Scotland's most unique and cherished historical features.
