Battleaxe, a kinsman of Fergus Mor, the sixth-century-ruler of the
ancient kingdom of Dalriada. Lands given to the clan chief included
the isle of Mull, off the west coast of Scotland. During the 16th
century the Campbells emerged as the most powerful clan in the West
Highlands. Several marriages took place between the Macleans and
the Campbells. Septs of the Maclean clan include Beaton, Black,
Dowart, Dowie, Duart, Garvie, Gillan, Lane, Lean, Leith, MacBeth,
MacCormick, MacFadyen, Macgeachan, MacVey, Patten and Rankin.
Scientists, thinkers and writers in the Scottish Enlightenment used
'commonplace notebooks' to record thoughts and ideas. Many British
writers such as Virginia Woolf and Arthur Conan Doyle continued to
use them. Tartan belongs to Scottish heritage and culture, and
thrives today both at home and overseas. There are now over 7,000
tartans officially recorded in the Scottish Register of Tartans
located within the National Archive of Scotland. Waverley Books
(Waverley Scotland) are delighted to innovate on the commonplace
notebook idea with the Waverley tartan notebooks bound in genuine
tartan cloth supplied by kilt makers and tailors Kinloch Anderson,
Edinburgh.

With the popularity of the cob rising year by year, it's time to
extol the virtues of this humble hero of the horse world. Cobs Can!
is an instructional training book specifically geared to cob riders
who want to improve their flatwork and jumping. Using kind and
gentle training methods that work with (not against) the typical
cob's nature and build, Omar Rabia shows that it's perfectly
possible to train these wonderful creatures to advanced levels. The
book includes lateral work in walk, trot and canter, as well as
piaffe, passage and Spanish walk. There are tips on jumping and
exercises to improve technique. Most of all the book is a
celebration of achievement, of what's possible when the versatile
cob and a thoughtful rider combine their efforts - proving that
cobs really can!
