Memoirs of the Clan Fingon; MacKinnon, D., Lewis Hepworth and Company, Ltd., 1899

The definitive resource on the history of the Clan MacKinnon. It's somewhat dated in that new information has come to light in the 100+ years since it's publication. You won't find this at Amazon. Your best bet is to try a reprinter such as Higginson Book Company, Salem, MA, USA.

Discovering Skye; MacDonald, J. Published by the Author. This small 76 page booklet is a fine description of Skye. I've only seen this sold in Skye itself.

The Clans of the Scottish Highlands; McIan, R., Alfred Knopf, Inc. 1980. This graceful resurrection of the famous book first published in the 1840's. Each clan is featured in some amount of detail.
