The spectacular advance of Campbell power in the medieval Scottish
kingdom has normally been explained in terms of the family's
ruthless and duplicitous suppression of their fellow-Gaels in
Argyll and the Hebrides at the behest of the Scottish crown. In
particular, Clan Campbell's success is seen to be built on the
destruction of older and more prestigious regional lordships in the
west, such as those of the MacDougall lords of Argyll and the
MacDonald lords of the Isles. But in this book the lords who
dominated the medieval Clan Campbell emerge more as individuals
enjoying complex and ambiguous relationships with the Scottish
crown and the culture and politics of Gaelic-speaking Scotland,
rather than as unquestioning agents of the Stewart monarchy and
committed converts to the aristocratic culture of lowland Scotland.
