"""I have learned more from this fine study than any number of other recent books on modern ?Scottish history. It is undeniably pioneering, skillfully undermining a number of old orthodoxies about Scotland's craftworkers, and will stand as the standard work on the subject for many years to come. "" -Professor Emeritus Sir Tom Devine, University of Edinburgh"
