Description:

Murder Under Trust is the first biography of Sir Lachlan Mor Maclean of Duart, the 'Great Maclean', a larger-than-life figure who dominated the western seaboard of Highland Scotland from 1578 until his death in 1598.Lachlan Mor's story is based mainly on the reports of spies working for Queen Elizabeth I of England and Philip II of Spain. The author also draws on Sir Lachlan's original letters in both Scots and Gaelic to make him a complex three-dimensional figure and not the cardboard cut-out so many of his contemporaries appear to be through lack of evidence.Murder Under Trust is essential reading for all those interested in the history of the Highlands and Islands and Ulster.
