Somerled: Hammer of the Norse,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Somerled: Hammer of the Norse (Paperback)
This is the best history of Somerled I have read! I have read seven others and this is the first author to examine all of the conflicting source materials and present them to the reader to draw their own conclusion. The other historians seemed to discedit Clan Donald histories about their ancestor and except the writings of Somerled's adversaries as gospel. This author presented both sides and added her perspective on reasons for the conflicting accounts. She showed faith that her reader could draw logical conclusions if empowered with all of the information. The reader is immediately aware that this author is presenting Somerled from the perspective of a Highlander. Thank you Kathlene MacPhee for this unique perspective on our ancestor.
