Books of Interest
Just FYI,

For good books on highland military/general history try:

Highlander in the French and Indian War &

Highlanders, A history of the HIghland Clans

My wife bought me both - love them - and both from Borders

Just finished both Sons of the Mountains books about Scots in the F&I wars. Check them out too. Thanks for the other suggestions.
