Whether you're an expert in history or simply curious about Scotland's imprint and place in the world, both past and present, this erudite episode between two historians at the top of their game is for you. Hosted by Catherine Maxwell-Stuart from Traquair House, their deep dive into Scotland’s rich global history provides us with fresh insights not only into the shaping of the modern world and economy but how Scotland got to where it is today.
