The Auchinleck Chronicle, titled in its original manuscript form as Ane Schort Memoriale of the Scottis Corniklis for Addicioun, is a brief history of Scotland during the reign of James II (1437–1460).[1]
It was written in Scots at an unknown date and is preserved only in the Asloan Manuscript of the early sixteenth century.[2]
The title Auchinleck Chronicle comes from the fact that the Asloan Manuscript was formerly owned by the Boswell Family at Auchinleck House in Ayrshire.[1]
The fuller title may be translated into English as A Short History to be Added to the Scots Chronicles.
