- Synopsis
- Lively true stories for young readers about infamous outlaws of Scottish history. Gary Smailes explores the darker side of Scottish history in this entertaining and informative book, written for middle grade readers. Featuring twenty-five true stories from the sixteenth century to the present day, Scottish Criminals introduces a motley crew of Scots (as well as a couple of heroes who might not have been so heroic after all), who have made their infamous mark in history—from pirates and murderers to thieves, outlaws, and even cannibals. In addition, these shady characters are vividly brought to life by award-winning children&’s illustrator Scoular Anderson.
