The essays cover five main themes: Ireland, Scotland and the British Question; The Horizons of Women; Conservatism and Culture in Scotland; Chartism Revisited, and The Past, the Present and the People. Together they form a historical enterprise highly relevant to the present and to all those concerned with the future of Britain and Ireland in the age of New Labour, the Peace process and the New Europe, and at a time when soaring, present-centred optimisms about all three are constantly coming up against obstacles which only a historically-informed consciousness can properly understand.
