Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. 1980. [viii], 190pp. "This book stamps a huge question mark on one of the great legends of musical history. The MacCrimmons, who lived on the Isle of Skye, have long been considered the gods of the piping fraternity-their famed piping school is to this day revered throughout the world. In this absorbing musical 'whodunit' the author gives us a vivid insight into treachery amongst the highland clans and an intriguing portrayal of a bloody Scotland only later to be romanticised by the Victorians. Central to the book's theme is Campsie's careful and ruthless dissection of Angus Mackay's writings. Angus Mackay, Queen Victoria's piper, did more than anyone to build up and perpetuate the myth of the MacCrimmons; a myth Mr Campsie's researches effectively demolish. MacCrimmons no more." Both book and unclipped dust jacket are in excellent condition. All contents are tight and clean. There are no inscriptions. Seller Inventory # ScotMusic161
