    Welcome to XMTS from sunny California.

    There are a fair number of articles about Scottish History and legends to be found over at the Clan Alba forums

    http://www.clannalba.com/

    They aren't a kilt site but an interesting read for Scottish culture, history, and politics.

    Cheers

    Hi, Leah -- welcome from Springfield!

    I am a librarian/instructor at OTC and I will be happy to recommend some titles to you regarding Scottish folklore. Drop me a PM or e-mail.

    Do you know about our local Scottish society?

    Aw'ra best,

    Todd
