When Volume 1 of the book of the same name was published in 2001, few people imagined that the volume would soon reach seven editions and become a classic of historical literature about Scotland. However, it was not possible in the first volume to include all the family histories of the most important clans. This gap in content is filled by the present volume 2, in which above all the clans MacDougall, the Sutherlands, the MacLarens and the MacFarlanes take centre stage. Beyond the family stories, the book contains digressions and anecdotes about the end of the first Earldom of Lennox, the rise of Somerled, the Battle of Harlaw and much more. The volume is rounded off in the tried and tested manner with descriptions of travel options to many historical sites.
