Book excerpt: Excerpt from Edinburgh Life 100 Years Ago: With an Account of the Fashions and Amusements Dr Johnson's celebrated tour in Scotland was contemporary with Captain Topham's residence in Edinburgh, and some very pertinent remarks are made by the latter upon the great Lexicographer's narrow, foolish, and petty criticisms of the Scottish people. The spirit of fairness and breadth of view displayed in our Author's own observations are readily accounted for by his wider experience and more catholic training. The opening passage of one of his letters is interesting in this connection. He writes: "I have been now resident in this city so considerable a time, that I begin to look on myself, and indeed wish to be thought by the inhabitants of it, almost a native of the country.

Download or read book Tracing Your Edinburgh Ancestors written by Alan Stewart and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2015-11-03 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edinburgh has been the capital of Scotland for the last 500 years and more. The 'Athens of the North' is the centre of Scottish banking, medicine, architecture, law and publishing. It is the home of Scotland's national museums and the location of the Queen's official residence in Scotland and of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland. It is also the site of the Edinburgh Festival and Royal Military Tattoo, and the seat of the devolved Scottish government. The city is steeped in national, local and family history, and Alan Stewart's handbook is the perfect guide to it. He takes readers through the story of Edinburgh from the earliest times up to the present day, showing how its colourful history has affected the lives of their ancestors. The many genealogical records of Edinburgh are described in detail, and appendices cover genealogy websites, family history societies, and Edinburgh's many archives, museums, art galleries, castles and palaces.

Download or read book Edinburgh written by Michael Fry and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2011-03-21 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late poet laureate, Sir John Betjeman, said that Edinburgh was the most beautiful city in Europe. Like some other great cities it is set on seven hills. But only one of these, Rome, rivals Edinburgh in matching the beauty of its setting with the stateliness of its buildings. Edinbrugh, too, provides the backdrop to much of the dark drama of the Scottish past, from Mary Queen of Scots to Bonnie Prince Charlie and beyond. Michael Fry, who has lived and worked there for nearly forty years, provides a compellingly readable account of this great city, from the earliest times to the present, balancing Edinburgh's cultural, political and social history, and painting a vivid portrait of a city - that like Stevenson's Dr Jekyll - is both dark and light, both dark and light, both 'Auld Reekie' and 'Athens of the North'. ‘Impressive ... in the style of Peter Ackroyd’s history of London’ Magnus Linklator, Spectator 'No one interested in the history of Edinburgh, and indeed Scotland, should be without it’ Allan Massie,Scotsman
