About this ebook
What would The Sun or the Daily Record have made of the Romans pulling out of Britain or the tumultuous Battle of Bannockburn? One can only imagine, but Old The Front Page does just that with over 100 pages of major events covered as only the tabloids of the day could have done it. This series of often funny and thought-provoking front page headlines only make you want to dive into the paper to find out all the other tittle tattle of the day. Would there have been 'Ten Things You Never Knew About Sir William Wallace'? Or 'Your Cut Out and Keep Declaration of Arbroath'. Free Darien Scheme teatowels? Who knows, but one things for sure, Martin Kielty has created a fascinating insight into Scotland's past.
