Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sutherland Evictions of 1814: Former and Recent Statements Respecting Them Examined The publication, in the course of the past year, of state ments injurious to the memory 'of Mr. Patrick Sellar has cast upon the writer, as his representative, the task of entering on a public discussion of matters, long gone by, in which Mr. Sellar took part. It is needless to say that this discussion would gladly have been avoided, if only on account of the reluctance felt by Mr. Sellar's family to publish to the world a narrative of personal details. They also felt that the public might justly resent the intrusion of personal matters into the consideration of a great question, - namely, the question by what means improvement in the condition of the Highlands may best be effected.

Download or read book Radical by Nature written by James T. Costa and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2025-01-07 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major biography of the brilliant naturalist, traveler, humanitarian, and codiscoverer of natural selection Alfred Russel Wallace (1823–1913) was perhaps the most famed naturalist of the Victorian age. His expeditions to remote Amazonia and southeast Asia were the stuff of legend. A collector of thousands of species new to science, he shared in the discovery of natural selection and founded the discipline of evolutionary biogeography. Radical by Nature tells the story of Wallace’s epic life and achievements, from his stellar rise from humble origins to his complicated friendship with Charles Darwin and other leading scientific lights of Britain to his devotion to social causes and movements that threatened to alienate him from scientific society. James Costa draws on letters, notebooks, and journals to provide a multifaceted account of a revolutionary life in science as well as Wallace’s family life. He shows how the self-taught Wallace doggedly pursued bold, even radical ideas that caused a seismic shift in the natural sciences, and how he also courted controversy with nonscientific pursuits such as spiritualism and socialism. Costa describes Wallace’s courageous social advocacy of women’s rights, labor reform, and other important issues. He also sheds light on Wallace’s complex relationship with Darwin, describing how Wallace graciously applauded his friend and rival, becoming one of his most ardent defenders. Weaving a revelatory narrative with the latest scholarship, Radical by Nature paints a mesmerizing portrait of a multifaceted thinker driven by a singular passion for science, a commitment to social justice, and a lifelong sense of wonder.

Excerpt: ... 27 chapter H. the incidents of 1814-16, and the trial. The river Naver, issuing from the loch of the same name, and running its course of some eighteen or twenty miles nearly due north to its mouth in the Pentland Firth, divides the strath into two portions of unequal natural fertility. The picturesque mountain of Cliebrig, rising on the other side of Loch Naver to a height of over 3,000 feet, closes in the scene to the south, and the strath, as it now appears, has a certain pastoral beauty. The left or western side rises in most places gradually from the river bank, and in the lower portion of it extends in long low haughs or meadows, suitable for tillage. In the year 1814 it contained a considerable population, holding under tacksmen. With this bank and its population the present narrative is not concerned. No one on that side of the river Naver was affected by any 'clearances' carried out during Mr. Sellar's factorship.1 The right bank, that on the east side, rises in most places abruptly from the river, and the nearer hills 1 It was the ' clearance' from this bank and what he termed the 'vast heaps of ruined claehans' he 'came upon' during his walk down that side of the river (see introductory chapter to Lays of the Highlands and Islands, by Professor Blackie, London, 1872), over which Professor Blackie, twenty years ago, shed the tears to which he refers in his letter of December 5 (Appendix, p. xoix.). To this 'clearance' he constantly refers, applying first one opprobrious epithet to it and then another. It was not carried out by Mr. Sellar. ascend to a greater height, and more steeply than those on the opposite side. There are few signs now on that bank of former settlements (at least in the upper part of the strath, where the...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of Saltire Scottish History Book of the Year They would be better dead, they said, than set adrift upon the world. But set adrift they were - thousands of them, their communities destroyed, their homes demolished and burned. Such were the Sutherland Clearances, an extraordinary episode, involving the deliberate depopulation of much of a Scottish county. What was done in the course of that episode was planned and carried out by a small group of men and one woman. Most of those involved wrote a great deal about their actions, intentions and feelings, and much of it has been preserved. There are no equivalent collections of material from those whose communities ceased to exist. Their feelings and fears are harder to access, but they are by no means irrecoverable. In this book James Hunter tells the story of the Sutherland Clearances. His researches took him to archives in Scotland, England and Canada, to the now deserted straths of Sutherland, to the frozen shores of Hudson Bay. The result is a gripping, moving, definitive account of a people's struggle for survival in the face of tragedy and disaster which includes experiences which have not featured in any previous such account.
