It is history all the way this morning with a nice letter and photographs from Ontario about Donald Maclean’s 2/4 march Major Manson at Clachantrushal. The letter begs more information on P/M Maclean and this we have included in our new ‘Famous Pipers’ section of the web magazine. G1 for webEasy access to piping history is very important, especially for the younger, internet generation. Here, then, is an opportunity for our army of young readers to learn something of one of the great pipers of the past and his signal composition. Read the letter here and the feature here.D naill banner
