MacDougal or MacDougall: The Clan MacDougal is descended from the eldest son Dougal or Dugald, of the princely House of Somerled, King of the Hedbrides. As eldest son, Dougal inherited his father’s lands in Argyll and Lorn, as well as the islands of Mull, Jura, Tiree and Lismore. Through marriage the MacDougalls were related to the Clan Comyn, so when Robert the Bruce murdered the Red Comyn in his bid to become king, a bloody feud erupted. In the 17th century during the Civil War the clan supported the Royalist cause, which led to them losing much of their lands; these were subsequently returned when the Stuart monarchy was restored. The MacDougalls built Ardchattan Priory near to Oban in Argyll, and the clan chiefs were buried there until the early 1700’s. Family motto – Buaidh no bas (To conquer or die). a b "Clan Anderson".

All About the Newport Mansions and Upstate New York Towns Bringing the HBO Show to LifeI like a hot Scottish accent as much as the next person & was considering this as a xmas gift for someone so thought I'd give the audiobook a spin. Oh man... these two come off as INSUFFERABLE douchebags. Maybe the smarmy, self-important tone isn't as obvious in print, but I'm currently 2/3 through the audio version and I don't know if I can even finish it. I'm giving it a couple of stars for the historical content (and the accents, which don't disappoint), but oof. Buyer beware.

What is certain is that by the 15th century Clan Cameron was flourishing in its spectacular Lochaber. The clan’s seat of Achnacarry Castle guards a vital strategic point at the south-west end of the Great Glen. It stands by a river on an isthmus between two lochs: Loch Lochy to the east, and Loch Arkaig to the west. To the south rise the might shoulders of Aonach Mor and the unmistakeable majesty of Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in Britain. This wildly beautiful land of water, forest and mountain is the ancestral realm of Clan Cameron - a place to be proud of. Both the crest and motto echo those from the chief of Clan Campbell. The MacTavishes had been considered a part of Clan Campbell until 1997 when "Chief of the Clan MacTavish" was recognised by the Lord Lyon. The motto is a response to the Campbell chief's Ne obliviscaris ('Do not forget'). [280]

This book is about the self promotion of the narcissistic authors. They are milking their role in Outlander with the deceitful claim of narrating their wild adventures going through the wild and historic Highlands of Scotland. If you are happy reading about how wonderful each of them were in Outlander, what horse the rode in which episode and other drivel - read on MacDuff!
