The House of Argyll and the Collateral Branches of the Clan Campbell: From the Year 420 to the Present Time (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The House of Argyll and the Collateral Branches of the Clan Campbell: From the Year 420 to the Present Time

For the work, but to compress them into an ordinary volume. To justly recount the works of the eminent men of the name of Campbell who have left their impress in the pages of the world's history, would take up far more space than we have devoted to the whole subject. In the Appendix, we have barely given the names of a few of the most celebrated of the Clan; without that list our work would hardly be complete, appearing, as it does, shortly before the happy event that is to shed additional lustre on their already bright escutcheon. When a Royal Princess, endowed with beauty and accomplishments of the highest rank, is about to be united to the heir of the House of Argyll, who inherits the statesmanlike qualities of the most celebrated of his ancestors; and while he is highly honoured by having gained the affections of the Prin cess, the sanction of the Queen, and the approbation of the country, his royal bride will not have to blush for the connexion she is forming; for we make hold to say, that no other family can show a more numerous and illustrious roll of names than the Campbells.
