The same author, Tim Clarkson, has at least one book (pic) that focuses on the Picts but I haven't read it yet. He also has "The Makers of Scotland: Picts, Romans, Gaels and Vikings", but I suspect that Picts aren't the main focus and I also haven't read it. The Picts are kind of tricky because we have an absolute paucity of (reliable) sources. AFAIK they only wrote a tiny amount of Ogham, which is almost worthless for modern historians. You could also check out James E. Fraser's "From Caledonia to Pictland: Scotland to 795" or Alex Woolf's "From Pictland to Alba: 789-1070". While I haven't read these two either, I have read a later book from the same series that was really good and was recommended to me by one of my profs.

>did you have much background knowledge
Yes but the first two chapters do a really good job of laying a foundation for those who aren't familiar with how things were going in early-medieval Northern Britain. Clarkson goes over
>what his sources are
>why he chose them
>where they come from (and what's "wrong" with them)
I had a pretty good background in the subject beforehand (took some relevant uni classes, read some other books, wiki, etc.) but I've still learned a lot in the first 40 or so pages. Definitely recommend.

Just started this yesterday. Bready gomfy so far.

I took a class on the history of sexuality. There's a surprising amount of academic work done on the erasure of bisexuals. Mostly self-induced erasure. Lablefags get the rope regardless.

My ex was bi and she refereed to herself as gay. The future is now, Boomerfly.

For shame.

Butterfly why are you gay? Why didn't you adhere your biological imperative and have children? Do you really want to be a 75 year old /lit/ coomer slinging your dusty minge at cute booktubers? See reason.
