Synopsis

This volume gives an account of the feuds of the Highlanders of Scotland. While most feuds stem from trivial causes, they have always been a source for high literature, from the Iliad to the Mahabharata. The Scottish feuds take on an epic quality of their own, as they play out their grim logic of retribution. The first part of this book was written by the late Rev. Alexander MacGregor, M.A., on 21st October, 1875, and delivered as a lecture to the Working Men's Club at Inverness on 19th November, 1875. The second part is from a manuscript written in the reign of King James VI. and first published in 1764.
