Book Synopsis History of Clan MacFarlane (Classic Reprint) by : James Macfarlane
Download or read book History of Clan MacFarlane (Classic Reprint) written by James Macfarlane and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "History of Clan MacFarlane" provides a complex and thorough look at MacFarlane clan history from inception to modern times. Written by James MacFarlane and published by the Clan MacFarlane Society, this text explores both the ancestry of one specific clan and addresses a broader understanding of the clan system as a whole. Scottish clans are a social group dependent upon lineage and political alliances. Surprisingly, not every MacFarlane is born into the clan, instead, throughout history groups swearing allegiance to the clan were allowed to petition for entrance into the clan and were they accepted, their children automatically became part of the clan as well. While this information may seem irrelevant to some, knowledge of one's clan can give individuals a better sense of who they are and where they come from along with a feeling of shared identity. This publication contends that it is the largest and most comprehensive (although not complete) history of the MacFarlane clan for the purpose of historic and genealogical research. Beginning with a list of the chiefs of the MacFarlane Clan from 1225 through 1866; the book indicates that all leaders of the clan are chosen by birthright and via political machinations. The text then explores, at length, the exciting history of these chiefs including entertaining stories and detailed exploits. In an effort to bring the text to life, the book includes many illustrations of clan tartans, crests, castles, and important places and people; all information pertinent to the MacFarlane clan. "History of Clan MacFarlane" is a wonderful resource for readers interested in Scottish genealogy and history; especially those with family history linked to the clan. This book is an interesting read for anyone interested in history, Scotland, clanship, and genealogical research; and while it contains a considerable amount of information, it is easily digestible by readers with any level of understanding in family history. Truly a stellar addition to any budding genealogist's collection. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2013-09-20 with total page 1416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This carefully crafted ebook: “Rob Roy + The Heart of Midlothian (2 Unabridged and fully Illustrated Classics with Introductory Essay and Notes by Andrew Lang)” is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Rob Roy (1817) is a historical novel by Walter Scott. It is a tale of adventure in the 18th century, set in the Scottish highlands, whose hero is the legendary maverick outlaw Rob Roy Macgregor. Though Rob Roy is not the lead character, his personality and actions are key to the novel's development. The Heart of Midlothian is a novel of Scottish history by Sir Walter Scott, published in four volumes in 1818. It is often considered to be his finest novel. The Old Tolbooth prison in Edinburgh is called “the heart of Midlothian,” and there Effie Deans is held on charges of having murdered her illegitimate son. Her sister, Jeanie Deans, makes a dangerous journey through outlaw-infested regions to London to seek the queen’s pardon for Effie. Justice and Scottish Presbyterianism are discussed at length, and issues of conscience provide the novel’s themes. Sir Walter Scott (1771-1832) was a prolific Scottish novelist, poet, historian, and biographer who is often considered both the inventor and the greatest practitioner of the historical novel.

Book Synopsis The Fascinating History of My Direct Royal Ancestors and Their Descendants by : Charles Harding
Download or read book The Fascinating History of My Direct Royal Ancestors and Their Descendants written by Charles Harding and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2022-02-28 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author traces his direct ancestors for 40 generations, commencing with Egbert Saxon, king of Wessex in generation 1. King Edward III is described in generation 18. He was the last monarch in the author’s Direct family tree. He and his wife, Philippa of Hanault, are the author’s 21 times great grandparents. The author narrates the history of his direct ancestors up to his grandparents in generation 39, from English royalty to Scottish nobility, ending with the Krio elite in the former British colony of Sierra Leone. This was as a result of the acting governor of Sierra Leone, the Scottish Kenneth Macaulay, the author’s 4 times great-grandfather, having a relationship with a liberated African, which led to the birth of the author’s 3 times great-grandmother Charlotte Macaulay, who was of mixed race. The book is an entertaining, fascinating and accessible piece of family history with a wide-ranging scope and engaging manner of dialogue, which will be of interest, not only to historians and genealogists, but also to non-fiction readers in general.

Download or read book The spoken word written by Adam Fox and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-30 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-ND) open access license. Discusses the transition from a largely oral to a fundamentally literate society in the early modern period. During this period the spoken word remained of the utmost importance but development of printing and the spread of popular literacy combined to transform the nature of communication. Examines English, Scottish and Welsh Oral culture to provide the first pan-British study of the subject. Covers several aspects of oral culture ranging from tradition, to memories of the civil war, to changing mechanics for the settling of debts. The time-span concentrates on the period 1500-1800 but includes material from outside this time frame, covering a longer chronolgical span than most other studies to show the link between early modern and modern oral and literate cultures.
