Which textbooks are good for Higher Maths and Physics?

I'm self-studying Higher Physics and Mathematics. Which textbooks are good for many practice questions I could do to learn the course?
Can you elaborate a wee bit? Which year? GCSE or A Level?

In that case, here is my recommendation:

SQA Higher Physics
"Higher Physics Complete Revision & Practice" by Leckie
"How to Pass Higher Physics" by Paul Chambers and Leckie
"Higher Physics: Practice Papers for SQA Exams" by Hodder Gibson
"University Physics" by Young and Freeman (Supplementary Resource only if interested)

SQA Higher Mathematics
"Higher Mathematics Student Book" by Leckie
"How to Pass Higher Maths" by Brian Logan and Leckie
"Higher Mathematics Practice Papers for SQA Exams" by Hodder Gibson
"Precalculus: Mathematics for Calculus" by J. Stewart, L. Redlin, and S. Watson (7th Edition, Supplementary Resource only if interested)
"Calculus: Early Transcendentals" by James Stewart (7th Edition, Supplementary Resource only if interested)
