Description

Clanship to Crofter's War: The Social Transformation of the Scottish Highlands

First published in the 1990s, this influential book remains a key work on the history of the Scottish Highlands from the end of the Jacobite Risings to the great crofters' rebellion of the 1880s. T. M. Devine explores the rapid transformation of Highland society in the 18th and 19th centuries, a process without parallel in western Europe.

For those interested in the history of the Scottish Highlands and Islands, or for students and scholars of Scottish history, social history, and rural society, this book offers a compelling and important study of a pivotal period in the region's development.
