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.
