Synopsis
Surprisingly little is known about Scottish experiences of the Second World War. Scottish Society in the Second World War addresses this oversight by providing a pioneering account of society and culture in wartime Scotland. While significantly illuminating a pivotal episode in Scottish history, this book also charts the uncertainties that permeated Scottish society at that time: relating to nationhood, to cultural identity, to Scotland's place within the Union, and towards the country's future. Using recently discovered archives, this text examines key aspects of wartime life, including work, leisure, morale, and religion. It also explores the underlying tension between conformity and resistance, and the ways that social fissures shaped Scottish responses to war. Further, in taking a national approach to the British home front, it draws out areas of cultural difference between Scotland and established scholarship on other nations and regions of Britain.

This is the moving story of a Dutch American horseman, who rescues an old plough horse from the slaughter house. Originally, just bought as a mount for a riding stable the horse is sold but makes his way back to Harry Deleyer's stable by jumping fences. Deleyer realizes this horse wants to soar so he trains him and the horse climbs the ranks of show jumping competitions to become a Champion. Fascinating story with good narrative. Great DVD, arrived in good time. Thankyou.
