Graeme Morton is the Scottish Studies Foundation Chair and Director of the Centre for Scottish Studies at the University of Guelph. His research interests cover all aspects of Scottish national identity and nationalism, with a current focus on late Victorian migrations and diasporic associational culture. He is completing Ourselves and Others: Scotland, 1832-1914 for EUP and his publications include Ties of Bluid, Kin and Countrie (2009), William Wallace: Man & Myth (2004) and Unionist-Nationalism (1999). Educated at the University of Oxford, Trevor Griffiths has worked on aspects of working-class culture and society in Britain in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and developments in textile technology in Britain prior to and during the Industrial Revolution.

Rezension zu „A History of Everyday Life in Scotland, 1800 to 1900 “
This book, part of a landmark new series on the history of the everyday in Scotland, will become a fixture in the bibliographies of historians, students, and interested readers alike. The series consists of four volumes covering everyday life from the medieval period up to the twentieth century and aims to examine, "the ordinary, routine, daily behaviour, experiences and beliefs of the Scottish people" (ix). Some of the best historians in their field have contributed to this volume, in nine specialist chapters. There is also a very good series introduction, an introduction to the volume, an annotated bibliography, and a plethora of fascinating illustrations, making it an excellent resource for readers! It is a roaring success; theoretically informed, and all of the chapters clearly linked to create an admirably coherent whole without any overlap-the authors and editors are to be congratulated. -- Annie Tindley, Glasgow Caledonian University Journal of British Studies This book, part of a landmark new series on the history of the everyday in Scotland, will become a fixture in the bibliographies of historians, students, and interested readers alike.
