Early 16th-century manuscript copy of the work known as 'Liber Pluscardensis', a chronicle of the history of Scotland founded mainly on the 'Chronica gentis Scotorum' of John of Fordun, and the 'Scotichronicon' of Walter Bower
DescriptionThe copy begins with five books closely following the first five books of Fordun as given in Bower, followed by 15 chapters of Book VI, somewhat abridged from Bower, Book VI, chapters 9-23 nearly as compiled by Fordun. This is followed by the rest of Book VI and by five more books, being an abridgement of Scotichronicon, though at variance with it on some points, and introducing much original matter.
