This book was released on 2009 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sixteenth century was the great age of the Highland clans. This history begins in 1493, when the Lord of the Isles lost his authority as a virtually independent ruler of the Hebrides and West Coast of Scotland. The next century saw struggles for land between neighboring clans and struggles for power between clan leaders and the King. Finally, when King James VI of Scotland assumed the English throne in 1603, he was able to consolidate his position as the undisputed central authority. The text includes an introduction that summarizes the period of the Picts, the Scots, and the Norse in the Scottish highlands and islands. Donald Gregory (December 25, 1803-October 21, 1836) was a lawyer, secretary to the Antiquarian Society of Scotland, and secretary to the Iona Club. His work is characterized by meticulous documentation of sources and a great love for Scotland.

Download or read book Ford A Village in the West Highlands of Scotland written by John B. Stephenson and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2014-10-17 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Highlands of Scotland, like the southern Appalachians of the United States, have long been a problem area in Great Britain, troubled with a fading economy and loss of population. Most books about the region, however, are popular volumes that romanticize a bygone way of life. This study of Ford, a village of some 160 people in western Argyllshire, thus fills a gap in the literature and provides a look at the present realities of Scottish life. Although the Highlands are by no means a homogeneous region, Ford in its size and makeup is perhaps a representative rural settlement. John Stephenson, who conducted extensive interviews in the village during 1981, focuses his study on the theme of survival, on whether this particular village shows signs of enduring as a community of people bound together by common interests and situations. Though necessarily tentative, his conclusions are optimistic. Ford has shown a recent increase in population, consisting almost entirely of newcomers, and though its residents have now a more varied background, they seem to have a sense of place, of belonging to the village. This book will provide new insights not only for those interested in life in the Highlands but also for all those interested in small communities in other parts of the world.
