Excerpt from Lays of the Highlands and Islands Restbau spake, the son of Brendan Son of Phelim, art thou wise? Wilt thou change the smiling Erin, For the scowling Pictish skies? Thou, the lealest son of Erin, Thou, a prince of royal line, Sprung by right descent from mighty N cill, whose hostages were nine? Wilt thou seek the glens of Albyn, For repose from loveless strife?

The Highlands and Islands of Scotland
Author: Alistair Moffat
Publisher: Birlinn Ltd
ISBN: 178885683X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 509
Book Description
Alistair Moffat tells the extraordinary story of the Highlands in the most detailed book ever written about this remarkable part of Scotland. This is the story of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland as it has never been told before. From the formation of the landscape millions of years ago to the twenty-first century, it brings to life the events and the people who have shaped Highland history, from saints, sinners and outlaws to monarchs, clan chiefs and warriors. Highly readable and informative, it mines a wide range of sources including medieval manuscripts and sagas, poetry and popular culture. Picts, Romans, Irish missionaries, Vikings, Jacobites and the flood of emigrants who left to forge new lives abroad are just some of the important players in the drama. As he paints the bigger picture, Alistair Moffat also introduces many key aspects of Highland culture and explores the experience of ordinary Highlanders and Islanders over thousands of years.
