The Scottish Highland Games in America - Hardcover
In America, the Games -- Highland dancing, piping and drumming, fiddling, and the caber toss -- had their heyday in the mid-to-late-19th century before giving way to general athletic pursuits, including the fledgling New York Athletic Club and the AAU. Today, more than 80 Games are held throughout the year in 33 states.
