The MacFarlane: The Origins of the Clan MacFarlane and Their Place in History

by Jim Hewitson

Here is recounted the stirring history of the MacFarlane from its beginnnings in the mists of medieval Caledonian history. 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 Macfarlanes fought long and hard to hold their territories in the West Highlands and were involved in many of the major conflicts that swept across their country. Here is told their exciting story in all its enthralling detail. This little book contains, where available, the clan motto, crest and tartan, in addition to the history of the name.

Could have been (and is) a Wikipedia article but this only cost £3 so it deserves 3*

Bought this in Scotland in June. A very short history summary.
