Summary "The Scottish Highlands, Highland Clans and Highland Regiments, Volume 1 (of 2)" is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century, specifically in 1875. This comprehensive work serves as a meticulous exploration of the history, culture, and military significance of the Scottish Highlands, clans, and regiments. The text promises to deliver extensive insights drawing upon previous works while incorporating newer research and narratives concerning the Highlands' history. The opening of this volume provides a detailed preface highlighting its purpose and structure. It outlines the three main sections the work encompasses: the general history of the Highlands, the individual histories of Highland clans, and an account of Highland regiments. The writer emphasizes the need for a revised work due to the wealth of new historical findings that have emerged since the original publication. The text conveys an earnest intention to present a thorough, accurate, and engaging narrative on the Scottish Highlands, aiming to broaden readers' understanding of its antiquities, societal structures, and significant military contributions.
