Download or read book History of the Rebellion of 1745 6 Classic Reprint written by Robert Chambers and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Rebellion of 1745-6 The present work appeared originally in Constable's Miscellany in 1827. The principal sources of information which then existed for a history of the civil war of 1745, were the contemporary public journals, Mr Home's work (valuable at least for its reports of what the author himself witnessed), the Lockhart and Culloden Papers, the Chevalier Johnstone's Memoirs, and the still fresh traditions of the people. Since from these documents the author constructed the first edition of his narrative, a greater quantity of valuable materials has become accessible than during eighty preceding years. The personal narratives of two distinguished actors, Lord Elcho and Mr Maxwell of Kirkconnel, have been in part or wholly given to the world. In Dr James Browne's History of the Highlands and Highland Clans, there appeared extensive and very important excerpts from the great collection in the possession of the British sovereign, styled 'The Stuart Papers.' To this valuable set of excerpts, Lord Mahon has made additions in his History of Great Britain between the Peace of Utrecht and that of Aix-la-Chapelle. I was myself so fortunate, in 1832, as to become possessed of an extensive collection of papers which had been gathered, early in the present century, by the late Sir Henry Steuart of Allanton, with a view to his composing a History of the Efforts in behalf of the House of Stuart from the Revolution downwards.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jacobite Memoirs of the Rebellion of 1745 The papers composing the present volume, and which form the first body of authentic historical memoirs respecting the Civil War of 1745 ever presented to the public, are selected from a manuscript collection of such documents, formed, within a few years subsequent to the battle of Culloden, by the pious and venerable clergyman whose name is given upon the title-page. The interests of the house of Stewart, it is well known, were identified in Scotland with those of an episcopal church, which had been displaced at the Revolution, and, in 1745, consisted of a few small and scattered congregations, under the superintendence of a reduced number of titular bishops.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Domestic Annals of Scotland: From the Revolution to the Rebellion of 1745 The domestic annals or scotland from the reformation To the revolution having experienced a favourable reception from the public, I have been induced to add a volume containing similar details with regard to the ensuing half-century. This is in many respects an interesting period of the history of Scotland. It is essentially a time of transition - transition from harsh and despotic to constitutional government; from religious intolerance and severity of manners to milder views and the love of elegance and amusement; from pride, idleness, and poverty, to industrious courses and the development of the natural resources of the country. At the same time, the tendency to the wreaking out of the wilder passions of the individual is found gradually giving place to respect for law. We see, as it were, the dawn of our present social state, streaked with the lingering romance of earlier ages. On these considerations, I am hopeful that the present volume will be pronounced in no respect a falling off in contrast with the former two.
