| Summary | "Scotland under her early kings, Volume 1 (of 2): A History of the Kingdom to the Close of the Thirteenth Century" by E. William Robertson is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The work aims to fill a significant gap in the history of Scotland, particularly concerning the early periods that have been neglected by previous historians. The book focuses on the formation of the Scottish kingdom, exploring the reigns of its early kings and the complex interactions between various tribes and kingdoms. The opening of the book introduces the author’s intention to detail the early history of Scotland, emphasizing the transition from Roman occupation to the emergence of distinct Scottish identity. It discusses the scant records from Roman times, the societal structure of the Picts, and early conflicts between the Picts and the incoming Angles and Scots. Key figures and events from the early centuries are mentioned, setting the stage for understanding how the amalgamation of these groups led to a more unified Scottish kingdom, paving the way for the detailed histories that will unfold in subsequent chapters.
