Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Oliphants of Gask: Records of a Jacobite Family This book was undertaken with the object of producing, in simple and picturesque form, an outline of the history of the Oliphants of Gask and their forbears, from early times to the present day. It was intended to form a short sketch, in the interests of the youngest generation of the race, for whom the family traditions, now separated from the ancient lands, would soon, as years passed, become confused and dim. Much was already in print concerning the old documents, and the part played by the Lairds of Gask in Jacobite enterprise, and some of the new information is so purely genealogical in character, that the reader not interested in such research can only be advised to skip the earlier chapters; but as the work went on, and the contents of the Gask charter chest were further examined, letters concerning many other families came to light, and seemed to suggest a possible extension of interest beyond the actual members of the Gask family. These letters, mainly of domestic rather than historical interest, reflect much that belongs to life in its most ordinary aspect; they are alive with the common cares and trivialities of every-day existence, - voices of a dead Past, speaking the living language that links them with the men and women of to-day, in the appeal of our unalterable humanity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Myth of the Jacobite Clans was first published in 1995: a revolutionary book, it argued that British history had long sought to caricature Jacobitism rather than to understand it, and that the Jacobite Risings drew on extensive Lowland support and had a national quality within Scotland. The Times Higher Education Supplement hailed its author's 'formidable talents' and the book and its ideas fuelled discussions in The Economist and Scotland on Sunday, on Radio Scotland and elsewhere. The argument of the book has been widely accepted, although it is still ignored by media and heritage representations which seek to depoliticise the Rising of 1745.Now entirely rewritten with extensive new primary research, this new expanded second edition addresses the questions of the first in more detail, examining the systematic misrepresentation of Jacobitism, the impressive size of the Jacobite armies, their training and organization and the Jacobite goal of dissolving the Union, and bringing to life the ordinary Scots who formed the core of Jacobite support in the ill-fated Rising of 1745. Now, more than ever, The Myth of the Jacobite Clans sounds the call for an end to the dismissive sneers and pointless romanticisation which have dogged the history of the subject in Scotland for 200 years.

Download or read book The White Rose of Gask written by Freeland Barbour and published by Birlinn Ltd. This book was released on 2019-10-17 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carolina Oliphant, Lady Nairne, a contemporary of Robert Burns, wrote over 80 songs which enjoyed great popularity during her lifetime and still do so up to the present day. They are some of Scotland's most famous traditional songs – including 'Charlie Is My Darling', 'A Hundred Pipers', 'Will Ye No' Come Back Again' and 'The Laird of Cockpen'. Despite their popularity, she shunned publicity and never acknowledged her authorship in her lifetime, even concealing it from her husband for a time. After her death, the publication in 1846 of her collected songs and poems as Lays from Strathearn revealed her secret. Partly because of her lifelong reticence, details of her biography and her personality have remained little-known though her songs are famous, and this important Scottish literary figure has been neglected. Freeland Barber, a descendent of Lady Nairne, now presents a long-overdue biography and reassessment of her life and work, much of it based on research into family papers to which he has recently had access.
