Highlanders, the classic illustrated history of the Highland Clans by Sir Fitzroy Maclean, was recently launched during Tartan Week in New York. The Overlook Press, The American-Scottish Foundation, The Gathering 2009, and Visit Scotland, convened on New York's Scotland House for a celebration of the new paperback edition of the book. There was plenty of single malt scotch, and quite a few men turned up in tartan skirts: (from left to right: Lord Jamie Sempill, Philip Riddle, Alan L. Bain, and Donald Maclaren).

The Beatles, Beatlemania and the Music That Changed the World by Bob Spitz Little Brown 2007 I'm wondering of, when I was a middle school aged grunt, if I even knew about music and musicians that were popular 40 years earlier. That would have been the music between the wars, music of a country climbing out of the Great Depression. The biggest hit songs would have been Fred Astaire and Ginger
