Peeps at Many Lands: Scotland

Hardcover (Forgotten Books Jan. 16, 2018)
Excerpt from Peeps at Many Lands: ScotlandA little boy was once asked to write an essay on Scotland, and he began by saying Scotland is the smallest half of England. I Should not wonder if this sentence lost a mark for him, yet I think we can all understand what he meant by it.He knew that England and Scotland are parts of the same island, and that nowadays they form one Kingdom, inhabited by the same people, who Speak the same language, have the same Parliament, and obey the same King; and that, when we cross the Border and go from Scotland into England, or from England into Scotland, we do not need to get out of the train and have our boxes opened and searched for certain things that are not allowed to be carried from one country to another unless a tax is paid on them, as is done when travellers go from France into Germany, or from Italy into France.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
