"There have been several books on the Highland Clearances, which are one of history's great tragedies, but nobody else has looked at what happened to the Highlanders once they got to other countries." "A book that should be read by everyone of Highland descent and by any Scot who has more than a passing interest in his or her sense of nationality." - blurbs from the book jacket. An interesting read, both for Scots and for Canadians of Scottish descent. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
