The dramatic story of Scotland - by charismatic television historian, Neil Oliver.
Scotland is one of the oldest countries in the world with a vivid and diverse past. Yet the stories and figures that dominate Scottish history - tales of failure, submission, thwarted ambition and tragedy - often badly serve this great nation, overshadowing the rich tapestry of her intricate past. Historian Neil Oliver presents a compelling new portrait of Scottish history, peppered with action, high drama and centuries of turbulence that have helped to shape modern Scotland. Along the way, he takes in iconic landmarks and historic architecture; debunks myths surrounding Scotland's famous sons; recalls forgotten battles; charts the growth of patriotism; and explores recent political developments, capturing Scotland's sense of identity and celebrating her place in the wider world.Binding Type: Paperback

An effective organizing solution for missions involving movable equipment
Size: Medium 16in x 1in
Following the compromised operation in Prague, I was tasked with organizing equipment for the embassy annex in Vienna. The VELCRO Brand Magnetic Straps provided an essential solution for securing various tools and equipment to metal surfaces, facilitating quick access during critical moments. The durability of the strap, combined with an impressively strong magnet, ensured that our gear remained in place despite variable operational conditions.
However, the loop formed by the strap could be larger; it limited our options for certain garden hoses, which became a notable drawback. Overall, the robust quality of the straps enhances logistical efficiency in high-pressure scenarios. Katarina's earlier input on this product proved beneficial, although I detected apprehension in her demeanor while discussing its application.
Recommendation: An effective organizing solution for missions involving movable equipment, with minor adjustments needed for cord size.

Sturdy and Reliable
Size: Medium 16in x 1in
Very sturdy and holds up well with regular use. It feels solid and well-made, not flimsy or like it’s going to wear out quickly. Definitely something you can rely on without worrying about it falling apart.

Buy This!
Size: Medium 16in x 1in
Super heavy duty! Not only does the magnet hold a ton, the strap is totally adjustable to hold wide items. Currently it's holding an 8 ish lb rope on the side of my garage fridge with zero issue! Easy to use and works great!

"Keep On Holding On" assist.
Size: Medium 16in x 1in
Magnet is powerful indeed . The velcro strap is quite long and I have not figured out how to shorten it without cutting it. Great for hoses, ropes, and pull alongs.
Temporary use as hold down in a truck bed for lite items.
