The sixteenth century was the great age of the Highland clans. This history begins in 1493, when the Lord of the Isles lost his authority as a virtually independent ruler of the Hebrides and West Coast of Scotland. The next century saw struggles for land between neighboring clans and struggles for power between clan leaders and the King. Finally, when King James VI of Scotland assumed the English throne in 1603, he was able to consolidate his position as the undisputed central authority. The text includes an introduction that summarizes the period of the Picts, the Scots, and the Norse in the Scottish highlands and islands. Donald Gregory (December 25, 1803-October 21, 1836) was a lawyer, secretary to the Antiquarian Society of Scotland, and secretary to the Iona Club. His work is characterized by meticulous documentation of sources and a great love for Scotland.

In this re-issue of a continuing classic, Donald Gregory explores the turbulent and compelling past of Scotland's Highlands and islands in the medieval era, concentrating on the years between 1493 and 1625. This is the original history of the lands of the former Lords of the Isles, charting their struggle to regain stability after the years of Somerled and his followers. Gregory offers the definitive account of the area's progress, taking the reader from the successful and popular reign of James IV to the distinctly more dangerous years of Charles I, and charting the immense amount of change that occurred during this time. Initially published in 1881, The History of the Western Highlands and Isles of Scotland, 1493 - 1625 is an invaluable and classic piece of scholarship on an era of Scottish history which is often neglected.

Exploring the turbulent and compelling past of Scotland’s west Highlands and islands in the late medieval era, this history of the lands of the former MacDonald "Lords of the Isles" charts the failure of the series of attempts to restore MacDonald's dominance in the west and the struggle to fill the resultant vacuum of power. This meticulously researched narrative travels through the changing fortunes of Scottish clans between 1493 and 1625 and the various ways in which those histories have been relayed and recorded for posterity. Initially published in 1836 and now updated with an enlightening new introduction, this invaluable edition is a classic piece of scholarship on an era of Highland history often neglected.
