A great account!
The speaker was incredibly easy to listen to and follow. Some spots were dry, but that’s to be expected given it’s about history! It was a perfect introduction to Scottish history.

Grim Pronunciation
The story was good and easily understood. The pronunciation of Scottish place names is grim.
