Description: The Highland Clans This book traces the dynastic origins of the various clans and charts much of their lesser known history, depicting their heraldic badges and war-cries and naming their lucky plants: the emblems and symbols of their individuality. But above all, it illustrates with sixteen pages of colour photographs and many more in black and white, including line drawings, the homelands of the clans, together with many of their historic relics and recent portraits of their chiefs. Here in magnificent illustration are the desolate mountains of the North in which the hardy clansmen fought for their survival, the forests where wolves once roamed, the lochs, the grim fortresses, and the stately homes where the chieftains settled in more recent times. In short, this is a book about the heritage of the Highland Scots, which, as a glance through its pages will show, is among the most splendid of any nation. In good condition. Dustcover has tears in back and shows wear. Pages show no tears or marks.
