Just listened through and need to digest but what a great piece of work with very many interesting strands. The colonialism from within, the politicisation and manipulation by the lairds ran deep and has left an indelible stain. Don’t we know.

The dearth of comments here surprised me, until I started to listen just now to this online lecture to The Gaelic Society of Inverness, and realised that the first 2 or 3 mins of Iain speaking are in Gaelic.
