I have to confess that my knowledge of Scottish history, and matters Royal and Riotous. Your work is fascinating and has a strong whiff of intimacy. In addition, you can maintain a strong Sense of suspense while ”showing off” a wicked sense of humour. Please, friend, consider this blurb (more to come as the history spreads wide and individual episodes get weirder), yes, consider it the start of a LONG 5-STAR assessment. Bravo, Michael!
