The Lowland Clearances

Scotland's Silent Revolution 1760 - 1830

Beschreibung

The Highland Clearances are a well-documented episode in Scotlandâ s past but they were not unique. The process began in the Scottish Lowlands nearly a century before, when tens of thousands of people were moved from the land by estate owners who replaced them with livestock or enclosed fields of crops. This book tells that forgotten story.
