The "old issues" project

You are looking at the result of a Clan MacLeod project that has been years in the making!

The original Clan MacLeod Society is one of the oldest Clan Society organisations on record. Over the years, MacLeods have engaged in many social, civic, and educational activities that explore the history of our Clan. The Clan MacLeod Magazine was first published in 1935, and contains thousands of pages chronicling these activities. It has been our goal to make all of these past issues available to Clan members, scholarly researchers, and the public at large. These Magazines include not only historical information about our Clan, its people, and the lands on which they have lived, but also represent an enormous effort by clansfolk to collect and preserve this information on their pages.

Over ten years ago, a group of volunteers from four continents began the process of preparing these documents for "print-on-demand." The original old issues were scanned and digitally formatted. Some page size adjustments have been made in order to meet the production requirements of modern printing presses, but we have done our best to reproduce these older issues as close as possible to how they were originally printed. The issues that were originally printed in full colour have been reproduced in full colour, and we have worked with several different publishing companies to get the best possible cost.

This project is not yet complete, and more issues will be added as we are able to do so. We hope you will enjoy reading the history ofour Clan.
