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

Here is recounted the stirring history of the Clan Ross 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 Rosses from their stronghold in the far north of Scotland played a leading part in their nation's history from the days when they helped defeat the Vikings at the battle of Largs in 1263. Here in colourful details is told their full, exciting, story. This little book contains, where available, the clan motto, crest and tartan, in addition to the history of the name.
