Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches of the Past and Present State of Moray The object of this work has been to collect and preserve in a somewhat permanent form, all that remains of the antiquities of the County of Moray. For this purpose, sketches of every interesting relic have been made by Mr D. Alexander, and such descriptions have been added as was deemed necessary to illustrate the drawings; and had not brevity been aimed at, this part of the work might have been considerably extended, so as to embrace many collateral subjects of interest. The fidelity and spirit of the accompanying sketches will, however, make up for any deficiency of description. The greater number of these views have never before been published in any form and it is proper to add, that the whole details of etching, as well as the drawings, have been executed by Mr Alexander.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Covenanters in Moray and Ross IN response to a request conveyed to me at a public meeting held in Nairn to welcome me back, after an absence of sixteen years, to the scene of my former labours, I have agreed to issue a Second Edition of these Lectures which have been now for several years out of print, but are still inquired for in the North of Scotland. I should have liked to have re-written them, adding a supplementary chapter on the Religious History of Moray since the Revolution, but my visit to Europe, undertaken for purpose of health, being limited, I must content myself with a few corrections and the addition of an explanatory note or two. For the same reason, I must leave the correction of the press to the publishers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A History of Moray and Nairn Classic Reprint written by Charles Rampini and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Moray and Nairn The word Moray is an old locative plural of the word maz'r, the sea, and its meaning is therefore in or among the seaboard men. In Gaelic the dative locative is very often raised to the nominative in place-names. No territory could have a more appropriate designation; for the Moray Firth - the sea here referred to - is the key to its history. To it are due in great measure those exceptional advantages of climate and soil which at various times have attracted Picts, Scots, Norsemen, and Saxons to its shores. The earliest inhabitants of these parts of whom we have any accurate historical knowledge belonged to the great nation to which the Romans gave the nickname of Picts, or the Painted People, from their habit of dyeing their bodies with woad. The word occurs no earlier than in the writings of the writers of the second century, but it can hardly be doubted that it was in use by the Romans at a much earlier period.
