Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fighting Men of a Highland Catholic Jacobite Clan: Who Fought in Canada to Gain It for and Preserve It to the Crown, and for the Honour of the Name of Glengarry Nata - The names mentioned in the following lists are only of those who held Commissions in the various Regiments. It would be practically impossible, at this late date, to compile a full and accurate list of the Non Commissioned Officers and men; it may be safely assumed, however, that they were about in proportion to the Commissioned Officers, practically every man of the name, whatever his rank or station in life, being a fighting man when occasion required.

Book Clanship  Commerce and the House of Stuart  1603 1788

Download or read book Clanship Commerce and the House of Stuart 1603 1788 written by Allan I. MacInnes and published by Birlinn Ltd. This book was released on 2022-07-07 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an appraisal of clanship both with respect to its vitality and its eventual demise, in which the author views clanship as a socio-economic, as well as a political agency, deriving its strength from personal obligations and mutual service between chiefs and gentry and their clansmen. Its demise is attributed to the throwing over of these personal obligations by the clan elite, not to legislation or central government repression. The book discusses the impact on the clans of the inevitable shift, with the passage of time, from feudalism to capitalism, regardless of the "Forty Five". It draws upon estate papers, family correspondence, financial compacts, social bonds and recorded oral tradition rather than the biased records of central government.

Download or read book The Highland Clans written by Alistair Moffat and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A brisk and accessible guide to a thousand years of reiving and rivalry in the Highlands.” —The Scotsman The story of the Highland clans of Scotland is famous, the names celebrated, and the deeds heroic. Having clung to ancient traditions of family, loyalty, and valor for centuries, the clans met the beginning of their end at the fateful Battle of Culloden in 1746. Alistair Moffat traces the history of the clans from their Celtic origins to the coming of the Romans; from Somerled the Viking to Robert the Bruce; from the great battles of Bannockburn and Flodden to Bonnie Prince Charlie and the Jacobite Risings; and from the Clearances to the present day. Moffat is an adept guide to the world of the clans, a world dominated by lineage, land, and community. These are stories of great leaders and famous battles, and of an extraordinary people, shaped by the unique traditions and landscape of the Scottish Highlands. It’s a story too about the pain of leaving, with the great emigrations to the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand that began after Culloden. Complete with a clan map and an alphabetical list of the clans of the Scottish Highlands, this is a must for anyone interested in the history of Scotland.
