Description

The Tartans Map of Scotland illustrates Scotland's clans, tartans and family names and is officially approved by the Scottish Tartans Authority. This beautifully illustrated map is both decorative and informative. The map includes: * 247 tartans with clan/family names, alphabetically arranged for easy look-up, from Abercromby to Young. * Territories map of principal clans at the beginning of the 17th century. * Historical background to clans and tartans. * Internet links for more information. The most distinctive feature of Scotland's history is arguably that of the clan. Highland dress and the tartan is a powerful symbol of the wearer's pride in their Scottish ancestry and in Scotland itself. Also available as a wall map (ISBN 978-0-00-748589-5). Other titles in the series include: Castles Map of Scotland Whisky Map of Scotland Scotland of Old Clans Map
