    NH Games - Lecture Series

    My speaking visit to the NH Games in Sept is confirmed. They've ask me to do,2 or 3 session each day, each of about an hour including questions, on subjects of my choice.

    I've some ideas but would be interested to get your thoughts. Obviously there is likely to be a range of pre-knowledge, or lack there of, and I want to pitch this appropriately. I will have access to PowerPoint and so much of my research material. Some initial ideas are:

    The development of clan tartans, the Highland Revival to Victoriana.

    The use of tartan as a Jacobite Symbol (I've done this a couple of time before and it always goes down well).

    Tartan Myths and the truth behind them.

    The development of military tartans.

    For those that might go, or would be interested in something similar at another time, what would you like to hear?
