Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Sketch of Scottish Industrial and Social History in the 18th and 19th Centuries The object of the following brief sketch, as is indicated in the title, is to trace out the social and industrial progress made by Scotland during the two hundred years since the union of her Parliament with that of England. It is perhaps unnecessary to say that the little book does not profess to give, within its narrow limits, an exhaustive or complete account of the subject with which it deals. It does, however, claim to have, however superficially, broken new ground, and to contain within its covers materials not hitherto brought together. Those materials have been gathered partly from contemporary authorities, and partly from the works of later writers. Among recent works to which the author desires to acknowledge indebtedness are the late Mr. Graham´s Social Life of Scotland in the 18th Century, and (for the Introduction) Dr. Hume Brown´s already classic History of Scotland, and Mr. Mathieson´s careful and thorough account of Scotland and the Union.
