The Isle of Skye, off the northwestern coast of Scotland, is the largest of the Inner Hebrides. "Be the many marvelous tales regarding Skye's heroes and heroines of prehistoric times true or not, a spirit of warlike enterprise has existed in the island from the earliest period of which we have any authentic record, and has been fostered by passing events (involving the strife of arms) century after century up to the present day. But it is with the share that 'the Brave Sons of Skye' took in Britain's great wars in foreign lands that this work more particularly deals." Biographical sketches, of varying length and primarily focused on military careers, are grouped by surname and place of residence. Surnames include: Beaton or Bethune, Campbell, Elder, MacAlister (tracing "their origin to Alasdair, or Alexander, a son of Angus Mor of the Clan Donald"), MacDonald, MacInnes, MacIvor, MacKinnon, MacLean, MacLeod, MacQueen, Martins, and Nicholson. Dr. John Grant, Sgt. John MacBeth, Col. Sir John MacRa, Dr. Alexander Morrison, Pvt. Hugh Robertson, the Battle of Mahidpore, the Battle of Moodkee, and the Battle of Inkerman are covered. Numerous portraits, a list of original subscribers, brief excerpts from letters and other documents, and a full-name index augment this work.

In 1962, Alexander McQueen Quattlebaum first visited the Isle of Skye, off the west coast of Scotland. After surveying the land and finding it a stark contrast to the fertile fields of South Carolina's lowcountry, he understood why, after generations, his forbears had chosen to leave the Scottish isle and cross the Atlantic. However, over the next two decades he made annual visits to Scotland and slowly uncovered the rich history of the MacQueen and Macfarlane families.
