The clans of Scotland are characterized by loyalty, the ties of blood and pride. This book looks at the history of the clan system, how it stood up to the rigors of Scottish history, and its importance today. Inextricably linked with the story of the clans is the story of their colors, of the tartan and the kilt, both the regimental and the homespun, the most evocative symbol of the clan &, of Scotland. Each of the 113 main clans is covered: their derivation and ancestry, the history of the clan, and the main figures and locations assoc. with them. Each clan's tartans are discussed and the main one illustrated. Also, beautiful color photos of important places in clan history, castles and brochs, battle sites, and Highland scenery.
