<p>The Anglo-Scottish border has witnessed centuries of warfare and violence, with the people of `the Borders', the Scottish Middle and East Marches, suffering more than most. This illustrated amd concise guide explains the background to the struggle, the development of techniques of war and presents some of the personalities who preyed continually along the border, even in official peacetime, and created a no-man's-land between Scotland and England. This also functions as a guide to the many ruined abbeys and castles which testify to many years of bloodshed as well as being picturesque landmarks in an area of outstanding beauty.</p>
