Unframed Print. Condition: Very Good. This 1889 architectural drawing of the Dail-Uaine Distillery in Strathspey, designed by Charles C. Doig, is both a technical blueprint and a piece of artistic storytelling. The upper portion presents a bird's-eye perspective, revealing a lively industrial site nestled in the rural Scottish landscape; complete with pitched-roof buildings, tall chimneys, and scattered workers that animate the scene. In contrast, the lower half offers a meticulous ground plan, dividing the distillery into functional zones such as malt kilns, mash houses, cooperage, stables, and bonded warehouses. A numbered key highlights 18 discrete roles, including designated offices for managers, clerks, and excise officers, reflecting the operational sophistication of 19th-century whisky production. This print exemplifies the Victorian harmony of beauty and precision. Charles Doig, famed for shaping the modern aesthetic of Scotland's distilleries, particularly through innovations like the pagoda-style "Doig ventilator", imbued his designs with both architectural clarity and narrative richness. The drawing stands as a testament to industrial heritage, offering a window into the thoughtful organisation and craft underpinning one of Scotland's most iconic cultural exports. For someone with an eye for thematic coherence and operational elegance, it's more than a drawing, it's a visual archive of whisky's golden age.A single sheet print, image area approx. 18 x 26 cms. The illustrations found in leading architectural journals of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, such as The Builder, Building News, and The Architect are masterpieces of visual craftsmanship. These illustrations capture the elegance, intricacy, and stylistic flair of the period's architecture. Rich in ornamental detail and atmospheric depth, they reflect not only the buildings themselves but the artistic sensibilities and design discourse of their age.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. A History of Clan Grant; Lord Strathspey; Phillimore, Chichester, 1983; printed and bound in Great Britain by The Camelot Press Limited, Southampton, Hants. From the blurb Clan Grant's recorded history dates from the mid-thirteenth century, when Sir Laurence de Grant was Sheriff of Inverness. The family, over the centuries, added to their original Speyside lands, centred on Grantown-on-Spey and Castle Grant, until the Clan territory stretched from Aberdeen in the east, Banff and Elgin in the north and over to the west shore of Loch Ness. Southwards, they controlled the wild slopes of the Cairngorm massif around Aviemore, now a famous ski-resort, where their summoning beacon was lighted on Craig Elachie (rock of alarm), still commemorated in their time-honoured rallying call and battle slogan"Stand Fast Craigellachie!". The Clan Grant Society, founded in 1897, has recently been revitalized in Britain, and Societies have been formed in the United States of America, Canada, New Zealand and Australia. The first clan to adopt an official tartan, by command of the Chief, in 1704, they were also the last clan to send out the traditional Fiery Cross to call the men to arms, in 1820 at the "raid on Elgin". Lord Strathspey is the 32nd Clan Chief. This book bound in red cloth, 114 pages, is in fine condition in a near-fine dust jacket that is now enclosed in a protective mylar dust jacket. Surprisingly, this book is very scarce, but obviously a very desirable title to anyone interested in the Grant Clan.
