Scotland History Tours is here for people who want to learn about Scottish history and get ideas for Scottish history tours. I try to make videos which tell you tales from Scotland's past and give you information about key dates in Scottish history and historical places to visit in Scotland. Not all videos are tales from Scotland's history, some of them are about men from Scotland's past or women from Scotland's past. Basically the people who made Scotland. From April 2020 onward I've tried to give ideas for historic days out in Scotland. Essentially these are days out in Scotland for adults who are interested in historical places to visit in Scotland.
As a Scottish history tour guide people ask: Help me plan a Scottish holiday, or help me plan a Scottish vacation if your from the US. So I've tried to give a bit of history, but some places of interest in Scotland as well.

@@LynxChan She was not pressured by her nobility to marry Bothwell. They hated him, and when she married him many revolted. She would have remained as queen if she had him executed instead of marrying him. In fact many historians think she wasn’t abducted and raped, but it was staged to give her an excuse to marry him. One of the reasons people think that is because it was thought at the time he was behind the plot to murder her second husband. Instead of arresting him, and trying him properly, she gave him a show trial. Much is made of Bothwell turning up to the trial with 2,000 men, but all of her major nobles had similar numbers of retainers. She could have ensured all of the other nobles had their armed followers present when Bothwell went on trial, and that he was tried properly. She didn’t and maybe that was because she wanted him to get off. The relationship between Bothwell and Mary was pretty murky, and one of the theories is they were already having an affair. We do know she miscarried his twins a few months later, but there is no reliable record of how far along in her pregnancy she was. If she was already pregnant when she was abducted it would explain why she had to marry him. However she could have become pregnant at the time of the abduction. However as they were married 3 weeks after the abduction she could not have known she was pregnant when she was married.

@@danielmontaigne1219 Her aim through it all was to hold the English Throne for her son, which she accomplished. She also trusted that people would be honest and do what they said they would do--with particular regard to Elizabeth I--who exploited Mary's trust as a means of strategy. What strikes me most about that period is the contrast between what people claimed to believe vis a vis their religion and how they behaved in reality. God was just another abstraction, albeit an important one to toss into the mix when someone was losing an argument. (Henry VIII, say, or his darling excommunicated daughter.) Elizabeth scored in the short term because she was more than willing to play dirty. But in the long term, it cost her dearly.

The Earl of Moray, was Margret Erskine & King James 5th's, son. They had two children together. James 5th, loved Margret Erskine and wanted to marry her. But the Auld Alliance with France came first. There are poems and sonnet's written about their love story. She was the daughter of the Earl of Mar. So, you see, that was James Stewart's only living Grandfather. When Mary, returned to Scotland, the Earl of Mar had to keep both sides from being as odds with one another.

How you see the week in question inevitably hinges on whether Mary was part of the plot to murder Darnley. If she WAS, then the whole scenario is turned on its head- she got rid of a millstone around her neck, avenged the murder of her friend and married her lover, with the 'abduction' a piece of theatrics intended to smooth over all the impropriety. It's obviously a really controversial topic, but that's how a lot of people at the time saw it.

Mary had married Darnley, b/c he was Catholic. This made a lot of Nobel's mad. She thought, she would get the support of the Vatican. The Vatican didn't want anything to do with those Scot's. They'd tried to defeat them before and lost. Darnley, was more than likely homosexual. Thus the syphilis. There is a painting, showing him lying nude by his lover, after they'd been blown-up. Like to know who commissioned that painting? Sort of set the story in stone, so to speak. Along with the Casket Letters, that suddenly appeared & then disappeared, incriminating Mary & Bothwell for Darnley's murder. I don't think the Earl of Mar, knew exactly who to believe or who to trust, when it came to baby James. His sworn duty, is to try & get James 6th to the thrown. Which he did....James 1st of England.
@earlofmar7987
@earlofmar7987 2 жыл бұрын
The Earl of Mar was sworn to Mary Queen of Scot's safety. He had taken her to France when she was around 8 years old. But was appalled at her level of education & how she conducted herself, when she returned. When she came for James, he was afraid that the baby would be killed by her adversaries. And the other question is, was baby James, really her child??? She should have stayed at Stirling. Stirling was a fortress.

Before I check out what I am sure is another quality story from you Bruce, when are you doing the last story of the 5 peoples of Scotland, namely the Vikings? You managed to get this Irish guy to commit sacrilege by being interested in a story of Anglo Saxon colonisation in your Angles people video, so hope you can square that polygon of the 5 peoples of Scotland soon. 😜

I enjoy your videos but you should have a disclaimer now on how accurate these stories are...we now live in a post trust post truth world and to propagate written stories form a specific class of people as fact is misleading.

@@ScotlandHistoryTours Sorry but I'm just an uneducated knucklehead from the back woods of the outskerts of NYC. Was that an STD reference, and did hubby #1 have it too? Did she have it as well? And I wish you and your family a speedy recovery.

Your videos are always nothing short of fantastic. But be aware, when you are standing talking, and you lean back, we can see right up your hairy nostrils. Not sure that will encourage patreon membership . . .
