Here is a radical, academically based text which demolishes the myths currently masquerading as Gunn 'history'. Gunns are best thought of as the original, non-related inhabitants of northern, mainland Scotland. They do not have an Orkney Islands origin. Gunns should not be viewed as a clan as they had no founding ancestor. There was never an historic 'Clan Gunn Chief'. The first Gunn known to history was Coroner Gunn of Caithness who died around 1450. His eldest son started the MacHamish Gunns of Killernan line - many descendants from that line exist all around the world. Major detail on this MacHamish line is included. This book is an important addition to Scottish Highland history.
Autorenporträt
I have been researching (Clan) Gunn history for decades and have written much about it and run several sites dedicated to it. My main (Clan) Gunn history is 'The Gunn: History, Myths and Genealogy' which is the first (Clan) Gunn history based on detailed academic analysis.
