'It's hard to know whether to laugh or cry at one of the most bizarre stories of modern culture, beautifully told by David Hesse. Is this who Scots have become, or are we simply figuring in someone else's fantasy life? Hesse tells it with sympathy and irony, and he is always true to what he finds. Perhaps we are all Scots now.' Emeritus Professor David McCrone, University of Edinburgh 'It is a volume full of surprises, intriguing facts and sharp insights which will have obvious appeal for scholars of identity, history, anthropology and folk culture. But Warrior dreams also merits a much broader readership because of its accessible prose and stimulating exploration of the enduring global appeal of romantic Scottishness'. Professor Sir Tom Devine, University of Edinburgh -- .
