Clan MacLaren: A Concise History of Scotland's Warriors of Balquhidder Glen

By Bagtown Clans

For centuries, Clan MacLaren stood as a proud and enduring force in the heart of Highland history-guardians of Balquhidder, loyal in faith, and steadfast in battle. Their saga is one of ancient roots, sacred lands, and unshakable courage, shaped by loyalty to kin and cause. From the glens of Perthshire to the wooded slopes of Strathyre, this evocative booklet draws you into the legacy of a clan whose spirit stood firm through triumph and trial alike.

Inside, you'll walk with the sons of Labhrainn, trace their claim to royal descent through the old kings of Dalriada, and uncover the meaning of their defiant motto, "Creag an Tuirc"-"The Boar's Rock." Discover their fierce loyalty to the Stewarts, their suffering in the wake of Culloden, and the legends rooted in the
sacred burial grounds of Balquhidder. You'll explore ruined kirks, hear tales of bravery and betrayal, and see how their tartan, crest, and war cry still stir hearts across the Highlands.

Whether you seek family connection, love Scotland's storied glens, or are drawn to tales of honor and heritage, this booklet opens the world of Clan MacLaren-its courage, its kinship, and its enduring place in the Highland soul. Step into the saga of the MacLarens: ancient, loyal, and ever standing firm on the Boar's Rock.
