Standard but good account of the history and continuing controversy regarding the fabled Scottish Stone of Destiny, from its supposed origins as the Biblical Jacob's pillow,its centuries connected with the coronation of Irish and Scottish kings, its removal by the English King Edward I in an effort to eliminate symbols of independent Scotland, its disappearance from London in the 1950s, and its 1997 return (after 700 years) to Scotland.
