Clan Douglas: A Concise History of Scotland's Defenders of Freedom and Feared Rivals

By Bagtown Clans

For centuries, Clan Douglas loomed as a mighty and feared name in the chronicles of Scotland's past-revered by many, rivaled by kings, and etched into legend. Their tale is one of power, loyalty, and relentless ambition, forged on battlefields and carved into castle walls. From the stormy Borderlands to the halls of Threave and Tantallon, this evocative booklet draws you into the rise-and reckoning-of a clan that once rivaled the crown itself.

Inside, you'll ride beside the Black Douglas in the Wars of Independence, trace the legacy of Good Sir James, and uncover the roots of their enduring motto, "Jamais Arri re"- "Never behind." Discover their pivotal role in freeing Scotland from English rule, their defiant clashes with Stewart monarchs, and the brutal fall of the "Black Douglases" at the height of their might. You'll explore towering fortresses, bloodied fields, and whispers of betrayal that echo through Scotland's darkened glens.

Whether you're chasing echoes of kinship, craving tales of chivalry and conquest, or captivated by Scotland's feudal fire, this booklet unveils the world of Clan Douglas-its thunder, its tragedy, and its towering mark upon the nation's soul. Step into the saga of the Douglases: bold, battle-hardened, and never behind.
