A proposito di questo titolo

 Journey into the fascinating history of the southern Scots families known as reivers. Border Reiving stands as one of the most intriguing phenomena in Scotlands political and social narrative. Spanning the entire Borders from Berwick to the Solway, this history embraces the counties of Berwick, Roxburgh, Selkirk, Peebles, and Dumfries. For over three centuries, these regions were home to bands of moss-troopers whose primary pursuit was to raid and plunder their English neighbors. Understanding the lives of the Border Reivers invites us to consider the harsh realities they faced‚often left with the stark choice between starvation and theft. This perspective not only deepens our sympathy for their plight but also challenges us to reflect on the complexities of their character and actions.Copyright History & Horror Collections Mondiale Scienza Scienze sociali
