Excerpt from The Women of the Debatable Land A half a century has passed, and the survivors of the Civil War are few and far between, but their children and children's children should consider it a sacred obli garion to erect a memento to the women of Virginia who sacrificed their all that the cause they loved should never die. If this book should even in a measure invoke popular sentiment to accomplish this end, and if I live to see such a statue before I cross the Mystic River, I can exclaim with my last breath, I have not lived in vain.

Excerpt from Women and the Land This increased cultivation of our country, these many questions that are connected with the health, happiness, and prosperity of those who till the soil and produce food in the shape of corn, meat, vegetables, eggs, or whatever it may be, concern very materially the women of England; for are they not the mothers and watchful guardians of those little ones who will be the inheritors of this wonderful Empire that we are fighting for?

"[An] entertaining work of geographical sleuthing.…Surprises abound." —The New Yorker An oft-overlooked region lies at the heart of British national history: the Debatable Land. The oldest detectable territorial division in Great Britain, the Debatable Land once served as a buffer between England and Scotland. It was once the bloodiest region in the country, fought over by Henry VIII, Elizabeth I, and James V. After most of its population was slaughtered or deported, it became the last part of Great Britain to be brought under the control of the state. Today, its boundaries have vanished from the map and are matters of myth and generational memories. In The Debatable Land, historian Graham Robb recovers the history of this ancient borderland in an exquisite tale that spans Roman, Medieval, and present-day Britain. Rich in detail and epic in scope, The Debatable Land provides a crucial, missing piece in the puzzle of British history.
