Thanks for the advice Hamish. Its just that I feel starved for information, and I thought this might be a good second book (after The Art of Kiltmaking). I am now curious about sporrans, hose flashes, jackets and other accoutrements.

The other books I am beginning to buy on a regular basis are titles concerning freemasonry (including its scottish connections). I am also reading books on the knights templar and their supposed connection to the Stuarts (Stewarts)...
