The Hamilton: The Origins of the Clan Hamilton and Their Place in History (Scottish Clan Mini-Book)

Here is recounted the stirring history of the Clan Hamilton from its beginnings in the mists of medieval Caledonian history down to the present time. The clan's turbulent exploits spanned the bloodthirsty, feuding saga of Scotland's history and the dramatic tales here retold recall dashing Highland charges, brutal battles, breathless chases and deadly duels. The Hamiltons date their powers back to the days when they helped Robert the Bruce throw off the English yoke and they have grown in strength, power and influence over the centuries. Here is their enthralling history told in all its engrossing detail. This little book contains, where available, the clan motto, crest and tartan, in addition to the history of the name.
