    You saved me from buying "Setts Of The Scottish Tartans" by buying it yourself. My overflowing bookshelves thank you :-)

    But it's such a handy book!

    It's one I reference regularly.

    Other frequently referenced books for me are

    The 1819 Key Pattern Book (Peter MacDonald)

    The History and Uniforms of the Scottish Regiments (Barnes)

    Highland Bagpipe Makers (Campbell)

    plus my Scottish Gaelic dictionary and Irish dictionary.

    Well, I was on the verge of buying it. But as long as it went to someone who's enjoying it, all is well.

    Your posts have lead me to purchase 3 dress sporrans and a Mackie balmoral. I was even dangerously close to buying a set of small pipes, even though I don't play and don't have time to learn. Thank you for leading me to beautiful bargains.

    I'll have to look into those other books you mentioned.
