The well-known Scottish political blog "Lily of St. Leonards" (effiedeans.blogspot.com) has appeared most weeks since the independence referendum began. It is now made available in book form for the first time, for ease of reference and as a record of the momentous years any of us in Scotland can remember. Here can be found over one hundred articles and more than five hundred pages covering every aspect of contemporary Scottish politics. For anyone interested in how the independence debate was conducted by ordinary people online this book is essential. Here are the reasons why Scotland said No and will continue to do so.
