    About this ebook

    Born Under a Union Flag is a collection of contributions by a range of people from the worlds of football, politics, academia and literature.  The book addresses a variety of tensions involved in Rangers Football Club and the Scottish independence debate. Harry Reid, for instance, offers an overview of Rangers in Scottish society, exploring its connections with Unionism and Protestantism. Other contributors explore further nuances of Rangers' role in contemporary Scotland, such as issues of gender and connections with Northern Ireland.  Born Under a Union Flag is a must-read for anyone interested in Rangers, the history of Scottish football, or the independence debate.
