Like the adventures of Indiana Jones, this book is no ordinary Quest. In this ground-breaking book, Historian and Celtic scholar Karen Ralls-MacLeod and local Scottish folklorist Ian Robertson present the unfolding drama of the people, places and traditions associated with Scotland's past. The authors explore the history and legends about the origin-myth of the Scots, the Declaration of Arbroath, the Stone of Destiny, Rosslyn Chapel, the Knights Templars, the 'missing library' of Iona, the Picts, the Druids, stone circles, the Celtic saints, the Culdees, King Arthur, the Holy Grail, Guild traditions of medieval Edinburgh, Robert the Bruce, Masonic traditions, the Royal Order of Scotland, and much more.
