Förlagets beskrivning
Excerpt from Clanship and the Clans: Containing a Popular Sketch of the Constitution and Traditions of the Clans of Scotland; With Notices of the Highland Garb and Arms, and a Table of the Clans, Giving Details of Name, Seat, Badge, Chief, Etc The following little sketch is written entirely for popular use, and can lay no claim to originality in its views, or to profound research in the collection of its materials. It is merely intended to give the English tourist and the general public an idea of the traits of character prominent in the Highlanders, of the constitution and spirit of clan-ship, and of the traditions which celebrate the achievments of the clans and the prowess of their chiefs. As useful for reference, and as embodying the results of lengthy disquisitions, a Table of the Clans is appended, in which, as far as possible, the name, badge, &c. of each is given. It is evident that detailed information on the vexed questions of origin, conflicting claims to chieftainship, &c. would possess little interest for the general reader, and can be found by those who desire it in the large and valuable works from which the present essay is compiled. There are - "Skene's Highlanders of Scotland" "Browne's History of the Highlands and Clans, " "Logan's Gael, " and "Robertson's Historical Proofs."
