Présentation de l'éditeur
Considerable attention has been given to biographical details, and to the productions of the I nverness-shire bards. These, it is hoped, may not only be interesting in themselves, but may also bring into prominence the men by whom in great measure the destinies of the county have been shaped and the character of its people formed. The history of the islands belonging to I nverness-shire falls to be dealt with in another volume of the series of County Histories of which this book forms part. These islands are but slightly connected historically with the mainland. From the days when they formed part of the Norwegian kingdom, and afterwards of the Lordship of the I sles, they have associations and interests which are peculiarly their own, and which deserve special treatment Generous assistance has been given to the writer by many I nverness-shire men who have taken a kindly interest in his work. He wishes specially to mention the Rev. Dr Forsyth, A bernethy; Mr Kenneth Mc Donald, the Town Clerk of Inverness ;M r Alexander Macpherson, Kingussie; Mr George Malcolm, I nvergarry; and Mr William Mackay, author of the History of Glenmoriston and Glenurquhart I nverness. To the last in various ways he has been much indebted, especially in the compilation of the appended Bibliographical list. His best thanks are also due to J. R. Finlay, Esq. of A berlour, for kindly revising the proofs of his work.
