Book excerpt: Reay Clarke's family were sheep-farmers at in the far north of Scotland for over two centuries. In this book he tells the story of the Clarkes of Eriboll and a way of life that has now vanished forever.Seen through his own family's experience, he also considers the social changes sheep-farming brought about in the form of clearances (during which vast numbers were evicted for the development of sheep farming), as well as ecological considerations: in the early 19th century, the land as far more agriculturally productive and ecologically diverse than it is today.In an extended Introduction, Professor James Hunter sets the book in context, exploring the pressing issues it raises - land use, ecology and environment - and explores Reay Clarke's own contribution to the debate on these topics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sutherland and the Reay Country: History, Antiquities, Folklore, Topography, Regiments, Ecclesiastical Records, Poetry and Music, Etc.; With Numerous Portraits and Illustrations Sutherland, only two of these can be said to possess much historical value, viz Sir Robert Gordon's Earldom Of Sutherland and Robert Mackay's House and Clan of Mackay. Copies of these are somewhat scarce, and their price puts them beyond the reach of many. The want oi such a work as the present has been long felt, and the Editors considered it would greatly enhance its value if each subject were treated separately by the best authority pro curable. It will be readily understood that a considerable time was necessary in bringing together contributions from a variety of authors, and this accounts for the delay in the publication of the book. Subscribers, however, have lost nothing by the delay, as the volume has greatly exceeded the dimensions indicated in the prospectus, and contains 100 pages more than anticipated. It was intended at first to include chapters on the Natural History and Geology of Sutherland; but the exigencies of space, combined with the recent appearance of exhaustive works on these subjects by Mr. Harvie-brown, of Larbert, and Mr. Cadell, of Grange, induced the Editors to depart from their original intention. The Editors record, with thanks, their indebtedness for valuable assistance in the preparation of the work to Mr. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
