Her intense, poetic prose explores and records the rocks, rivers, creatures and hidden aspects of this remarkable landscape.

M. Devine","description":"'A superb book ... Anybody interested in Scottish history needs to read it' Andrew Marr, Sunday TimesEighteenth-century  Scotland is famed for generating many of the  enlightened ideas which  helped to shape the modern world. But there was  in the same period  another side to the history of the nation. Many of  Scotland's people  were subjected to coercive and sometimes violent  change, as traditional  ways of life were overturned by the 'rational'  exploitation of land  use. The Scottish Clearances is a superb and  highly original account of  this sometimes terrible process, which  changed the Lowland countryside  forever, as it also did, more  infamously, the old society of the  Highlands.   Based on a vast  array of original sources, this  pioneering book is the first to chart  this tumultuous saga in one  volume, with due attention to evictions and  loss of land in both north  and south of the Highland line. In the  process, old myths are exploded  and familiar assumptions undermined.  With many fascinating details and  the sense of an epic human story, The Scottish Clearances is an  evocative memorial to all whose lives were irreparably changed in the  interests of economic efficiency.   This  is a story of forced  clearance, of the destruction of entire  communities and of large-scale  emigration. Some winners were able to  adapt and exploit the new  opportunities, but there were also others who  lost everything. The  clearances created the landscape of Scotland today,  but it came at a  huge price.;  496 pages; Published: 30\/05\/2019\u003cdiv class=\"goodreadr\" data-isbn=\"9780141985930\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42214351012019,"sku":"9780141985930","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0024\/6874\/1219\/products\/9780141985930.jpg?v=1669818983"},{"product_id":"9780753826638","title":"A History Of Scotland by Neil Oliver","description":"The dramatic story of Scotland - by charismatic television historian, Neil Oliver.
