Historian John Anderson published an account of the battle in his book "Historical Account of the Family of Fraser" in 1825. Anderson quotes from the MSS History of the Frasers ("Wardlaw Manuscript" written c.1674 by James Fraser of Wardlaw) and the MSS of Mackenzies ("Applecross MS History of the Mackenzies" written c.1669 by John Mackenzie of Applecross). Anderson's account is very similar to that given in James Fraser's Wardlaw MS. Anderson also states that a "different colour" is given in the account by the Mackenzies, but they agree on the main points.
