' There is no part of husbandry," says Miller, "of '" which our farmers are, in general, more ignorant, "than that of pasture ." But, if there is ground for this complaint in England, there is certainly much more room for it in Scotland. Our improvements in tillage have been considerable; but our improvements in the management of grass grounds have not advanced in proportion. This is the more to be regretted, as a great part of Scotland, and especially all the Highland countries, must depend chiefly on 4 Miller's Dictionary.--Pasture. pasture. In England, and everywhere else, tillage has been more particularly the object of experiment and improvement; but pasturage is likewise susceptible of many beneficial alterations, and of great advancement. In a pastoral country, such as the Highlands, the proper management of the natural grass, the preservation of hay, and.the increase of food for cattle, by means of artificial pasture and provender, ought to be leading objects in the eye of the farmer. The observations to be made on this subject, may, therefore, be referred to the three articles of Pasture, Natural Hay, and Artificial Grasses. That tribe of plants, called by botanists, the "Gramina," contains all the gramineous plants or grasses, strictly so called, and also the culmiferous pidnls, which comprehend all the various sorts of grain. There is no tribe of plants so useful and important; none so universally disseminated over the face of the earth; none that so highly deserves our care and attention, nor any that is capable of regarding our researches with equal emolument. There is, indeed, no class of herbs or trees equally numerous with that of the gramina, whose roots, leaves, or fruit, afford so...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1982, A History of the Highland Clearances looks at the forcible clearance of tenants from land they had farmed for centuries by landlords in the Highlands of Scotland in the early nineteenth century. It examines the general context of historical change, provides a full narrative of the clearances and offers a critical evaluation of the documentary sources upon which the entire story depends. By placing his subject in its historical perspective and into the context of the rest of Britain and Europe, Eric Richards vividly illustrates the realities of the Highland experience in the age of the clearances.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DIVEnlightenment’s Frontier is the first book to investigate the environmental roots of the Scottish Enlightenment. What was the place of the natural world in Adam Smith’s famous defense of free trade? Fredrik Albritton Jonsson recovers the forgotten networks of improvers and natural historians that sought to transform the soil, plants, and climate of Scotland in the eighteenth century. The Highlands offered a vast outdoor laboratory for rival liberal and conservative views of nature and society. But when the improvement schemes foundered toward the end of the century, northern Scotland instead became a crucible for anxieties about overpopulation, resource exhaustion, and the physical limits to economic growth. In this way, the rise and fall of the Enlightenment in the Highlands sheds new light on the origins of environmentalism./div
