by David Strachan, Cathy MacIver, Andy Heald
2025 · Archaeopress Publishing Ltd
King’s Seat fort near Dunkeld, once lost to archaeology, was rediscovered in 2015 and revealed as a high-status Pictish royal site. Excavations uncovered metalworking, trade, and feasting evidence. Its later abandonment reflects shifts in power and religious influence, linking prehistory to medieval Scotland.
Leave it to the experts of the best-selling Worst-Case Scenario series to ferret out the most scandalous, dangerous, incompetent, and downright awful people to ever seek power. The most lavish palaces, the bloodiest coups, the stupidest declarations. . . . Plus all the lists, charts, maps, and profiles that have made the Worst-Case Scenario Almanacs such a success. Which country had more governments in the past 175 years—Italy or Bolivia? What ever happened to all those people who ran for vice president of the United States of America—and lost? Illustrated, step-by-step scenarios describe how to respond when confronted with misfortune or challenge, including how to give a concession speech, kiss a drooling baby, escape a sex scandal, and evade the truth.
