I have two books you might want to try Mell. One is Periods in Highland History by I.F. Grand & Hugh Cheape and the other is Scotland /An Intimate Portrait by Geddes MacGregor. I'm always scouring the bookstores for books on Scottish history and such. If I find any others I'll make sure to post them.

So have you found out what they really wore underneath a kilt?
