  An examination of the key words and images in Scottish politics from the Labour landslide in 1945 to John Major's triumph in defence of the Union in 1992. The study analyzes why the Scots have flirted but never committed to Home Rule through the Covenant petition, the role of the SNP, the devolution debates of the 1970s and the Constitutional Convention. It explores the increasingly separate world of Scottish politics and the role the Scottish Question now plays in the British political system.
