Synopsis

Few families in Britain have survived over 800 years in the same place, but the Lairds of Arbuthnott are exceptional. There have been Arbuthnotts at Arbuthnott House in Kincardineshire in an unbroken male line from before 1200. Their personal fortunes have been closely interwoven with Scotland's history as they lived through times of hardship and times of plenty. One of Scotland's premier families, the Lairds of Arbuthnott continue to make a contribution to both local and national life as they have done for the past eight centuries. Christy Bing, sister of the present Viscount of Arbuthnott , chronicles her ancestors with a lively interest, delving into both their personal histories and the times in which they lived. Her story will fascinate anyone with an interest in Scottish history,in Angus and the Mearns or in the Arbuthnott family, now spread by emigration to all corners of the world.
