Mackinnon and the Bards is a historical book written by John Mactaggart and published in 1899. The book is about the life and times of Sir Alexander Mackinnon, who was a prominent figure in the Scottish Highlands during the 18th century. Mackinnon was a clan chief and a patron of the arts, particularly of the Gaelic bards. The book explores his relationship with the bards and how he supported and encouraged their work. It also delves into the cultural and political landscape of the Highlands during Mackinnon's time, including the Jacobite uprisings and the Clearances. Mactaggart draws on historical records and primary sources to paint a vivid picture of Mackinnon's life and the world he inhabited. The book is a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era and an important contribution to Scottish history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
