Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Wild Scottish Clans: And Bonnie Prince Charlie Far up in the frozen north, across the heaving Atlantic from ice-bound Labrador, subject to the long Arctic twilight and lighted by the rays of the polar star, sit the giant, heather-clad mountains of the Lion of the North. Around their never-changing buttresses mists gather, storms break and snows beat, and out of those mists, storms and snows, has come a race of people to whom the civilized world owes much. In all Europe, in fact in all the world, there is no more extraordinary anthropological spectacle than that presented by the Gaels of Scotland who preserve, to the the present time, the manners and customs of their ancestors from ages the most remote, and use a language once the most widely diffused and now the oldest extant. Among all the peculiarities of times past which they preserve there is none more picturesque than that of the Highland costume, now also the oldest garb in use.
