This review is from: Scotland's Stone of Destiny (Paperback)
This is a fine book, packed with information not just about the Stone of Destiny and its genuine and mythological history, meanings and symbolism, but it also provides a detailed look at the long, not always amiable relations between Scotland and England. As he did with his book on Macbeth, Aitchison places the Stone in context, separates the truth from the myth, and does so in a way that's both entertaining and informative. As a symbol of Scottish nationhood and independence from England, the Stone of Destiny is critical, as the leaders of both kingdoms recognized, and Aitchison does a fine job of exploring all of the nuances regarding that symbolism as well.
