Synopsis

From the 13th century until early in the 17th century the Border Marches of England and Scotland were torn by a vicious and almost continuous cycle of raid, reprisal and blood feud.

The Border Reiver was a professional cattle thief, a guerrilla soldier skilled at raiding, tracking and ambush and a well-organised gangster. Including eight superb full page colour plates by Angus McBride, as well as numerous other illustrations, this text by Keith Durham explores the colourful history of these remarkable people.
