The Story Behind This Book
While researching my own genealogy with my children, I came across some interesting facts. I knew my great-grandfather came from Scotland. I came across a site that told about the MacGregor's and the proscription against them. It also showed some of the names taken by them, one of them being Wilcox. It was then I decided to write my story with Iain MacGregor as my hero.
