* Scottish Highlanders, Indian Peoples : Thirty Generations
of a Montana Family -
Members of Montana's McDonald family trace their roots to
the chiefs of the Nez Perce tribe and to the chiefs of
Scotland's most formidable clan. On two continents, first
as Highlanders, and then as Indians, the family suffered
massacre and dispossession. Today the McDonalds, Indian
people committed to nurturing their Indian culture,
continue to honor their Scottish ancestry. The McDonald's
story is told in Scottish Higlanders, Indian Peoples. This
epic tale traces the McDonald family over a thousand
years: starting with a ninth-century migration from
Ireland to Scotland; taking in medieval warriors who
battled for Scotland's independence from England; ending
with these warriors' descendants on Montana's Flathead
Reservation. This real-life family saga spans two
continents, eleven centuries, and more than thirty
generations to link the clans of Scotland and the native
peoples of the American West.
