    3. Hello List. I have just put down John Prebble's "The Highland Clearances" to have a look at my emails before heading off to bed. I could not resist putting in my tu'pence worth to see what the morning brings. John Prebble's book is not for the faint hearted. I for one find that it is enough to make a grown man reach for his handkerchief. There are several references in the book to Glengarry, the place and the family. If you can find a copy as I did in a second hand book shop or where ever, buy it. You and I have no idea of the how the Highlands died! I can not write any more. You will have to read the book. The details of publication are: The Highland Clearances, John Prebble, Martin Secker & Warburg Ltd, London, 14 Carlisle Street, W1V 6NN. Printed 1963 and reprinted '63 '65 '67 '70 '71 '76.
