Excerpt from Castle Memories Twenty Tales of Edinburgh Castle The pride of Edinburgh is her Castle.

Edinburgh (Classic Reprint) by Rosaline Masson Pdf

Excerpt from Edinburgh The earliest authentic romance of Edinburgh Castle is that of Malcolm Canmore and Queen Margaret; and the oldest building extant in Edinburgh is Queen Margaret's chapel in the Castle. The well-known story of Queen Margaret, the grand-niece of Edward the Confessor, is that she and her brother Edgar Atheling and her sister Christina all fled from England and William the Conqueror, and were wrecked in the Firth of Forth. The King of Scotland, Malcolm Canmore, was the son of that Duncan whom Macbeth put out of the way - in Scottish history as well as in Shakespeare's play, - and he had fled from the usurper, and had spent his years of exile at the Saxon Court of Edward the Confessor.

Stirling Castle by Eric Stair-Kerr Pdf

Excerpt from Stirling Castle: Its Place in Scottish History Stirling castle is a many-sided subject that can be treated in more than one way. The story of the castle might be dealt with in a book divided into sections, each one taking up a special part, such as Military History, Stirling as a Royal Palace, Notable Visitors, etc. But I have thought it better to set forth the Whole of the castle's history in chronological order, and, after discussing the buildings and their associations, to bring together the salient events connected with the three chief Scottish strongholds, and to record What the poets have said about Stirling. With regard to dates, for the sake of simplicity I have adopted the historical computation; that is to say, the years have been reckoned as if they had always begun on the Ist of January and not on the 25th of March, as was the rule in Scotland until 1600. For example, the date of Prince Henry's birth is given as February, 1594. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Lord Jeffrey and Craigcrook by James Taylor Pdf

Excerpt from Lord Jeffrey and Craigcrook: A History of the Castle Apart from this special association, which is the dominant note of the book, the story of Craigcrook is well worthy of permanent record. It takes us back almost to the days of Robert the Bruce. A portion of the present building probably dates from before the battle of Pinkie. It was fortified by the King's party in the troublous times of Queen Mary. Passing through several hands, it was finally bequeathed in 1719, and the whole property is now administered by trustees for charitable purposes.

Edinburgh by M. G. Williamson Pdf

Excerpt from Edinburgh: A Historical and Topographical Account of the City Probably the only part of this legend which has any foundation In fact 15 the statement, implied rather than expressed, that the Castle of Edinburgh was first founded, and that the town gradually grew up around it. That is what we should expect, not only because this was the most general origin of towns in early days, but still more because of the natural position of Edin burgh.
