Here is recounted the stirring history og the Clan Mackay from its beginning in the mists of medieval Caledonian history down to the present time. The clan's turbulent exploits spanned the bloodthirsty, feuding saga of Scotland's history and the dramatic tales here retold recall dashing Highland charges, brutal battles, breathless chases and deadly duels. The Clan Mackay were renowned swordsmen who could muster forces four thousand strong at short notice in the Highlands. They had long, bitter feuds with neighbouring clans like the Sutherlands and were noted mercenaries. Here their full story is told in all its vivid detail. This little book contains, where available, the clan motto, crest and tartan, in addition to the history of the name.
