Description
Distinctively Scottish, this is the definitive history of tartan from the medieval love of display to the Victorian invention of exclusive clan identity. A fresh and vivid interpretation, this book also includes a section on individual clan tartans -- invaluable for those interested in their Scottish ancestry. Hugh Cheape is curator of Modern Scottish History at NMS and has a particular interest in Gaelic culture.
