'The great strength of MacKenzie's narrative is its readable simplicity ... his voice is still more powerful, more moving than the cautious confirmation of later scholars.' John Prebble

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The History of the Highland Clearances (Mercat Classics) (Paperback)

Unforgettable accounts of a very dark chapter in the history of Britain which saw the callous disregard of the distress brought to whole communities in rural Scotland. An excellent primary source for historians, teachers and general readers written during the events described, in the words of witnesses and participants.
This book should be in the family libraries of every descendant of Scotland.
