Border Raids and Reivers is a historical account of the turbulent times in the Scottish-English border region during the 16th century. Written by Robert Borland and originally published in 1898, the book delves into the history of the border reivers, who were notorious raiders and robbers who terrorized the area for centuries. Borland provides a detailed analysis of the causes and effects of the border raids, including the political and economic factors that contributed to the violence. He also explores the social and cultural impact of the raids, including the development of a unique border culture that was shaped by the constant threat of violence.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the border raids. Borland provides a wealth of information on the key figures involved in the conflict, including notable reivers such as Kinmont Willie and Johnnie Armstrong. He also examines the role of the border clans and their relationships with one another, as well as with the Scottish and English monarchs.Overall, Border Raids and Reivers is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of the Scottish-English border region and the impact of the border raids on the area's culture and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
