Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For much of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the British East India Company consolidated its rule over India, evolving from a trading venture to a colonial administrative force. Yet its territorial gains far outpaced its understanding of the region and the people who lived there, and its desperate efforts to gain knowledge of the area led to the 1815 appointment of army officer Colin Mackenzie as the first Surveyor General of India. This volume carefully reconstructs the life and career of Mackenzie, showing how the massive survey of India that he undertook became one of the most spectacular and wide-ranging knowledge production initiatives in British colonial history.

CHAPTER XXIII1 One of the most picturesque sights in the North-West of Scotland is undoubtedly the ruined castle of Ardvreck, Loch Assynt, already mentioned as associated with the capture of Montrose. Gardiner, the historian of the Commonwealth and Protectorate, concludes that there is not a shadow of evidence that the laird acted treacherously, or had done anything more than his duty to the Government of which he was a servant. 'It is unlikely that he ever conceived the idea that it was possible for him to act otherwise than he did.' After the Restoration, at the instance of the Lord Advocate, with consent of the Marquis's son, proceedings were taken against Macleod, the Laird of Assynt, who was cast into prison, where he remained for three years, until liberated in 1666 by order of Charles n. Macleod denied the facts alleged, nor was it proved that he was formerly in the service of Montrose. He grounded his defence also on the indemnity granted by the King in the year 1650. On the 8th of October 1663 the King was appealed to for his decision as to prosecuting the charge or sisting further proceedings, and three months later the laird petitioned, on the plea of ill-health, for release from confinement. He wished not to die in prison. Within Edinburgh he was allowed his liberty under a penalty of DEGREES20,000 Scots if he failed to reenter ward when required. On the soth February 1666 Macleod's case was declared to be included under the King's indemnity of 1650. On his discharge being ordered, he was set free without final trial, and thus the Laird of Assynt's guilt or innocence in regard to Montrose was judicially never proved. 1 (See pages 63-64, 206-207, of foregoing.)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1982, A History of the Highland Clearances looks at the forcible clearance of tenants from land they had farmed for centuries by landlords in the Highlands of Scotland in the early nineteenth century. It examines the general context of historical change, provides a full narrative of the clearances and offers a critical evaluation of the documentary sources upon which the entire story depends. By placing his subject in its historical perspective and into the context of the rest of Britain and Europe, Eric Richards vividly illustrates the realities of the Highland experience in the age of the clearances.
