Beschreibung:
In November 1918, the implementation of agrarian change in the Scottish Highlands threatened another wave of unemployment and eviction for the land-working population, which led to widespread and varied social protest. This book not only offers new insights and a greater understanding of what was happening in the Highlands in this period, but illustrates how a range of forms of protest were used which demand attention, not least for the fact that these events, unlike most of the earlier Land Wars period, were successful. Critically, this book draws on oral testimony, which captures different 'moments' of the same event and, if interwoven with the written archival material as here proposed, can only enrich our understanding.
