DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Notes on Orkney and Zetland, Vol. 1: Illustrative of the History, Antiquities, Scenery, and Customs of Those Islands It may be proper to state, that the writer of these Notes has been res1dent in Orkney for a period of above seven years, and that, during the greater part of that time, he has devoted a considerable portion of his leisure to the investigation of every thing in that district by which its past or present condition are characterised. This has been done partly for his own gratification, and partly in the discharge of public duties. In those inquiries, he found Wallace' s and Barry's Accounts of Orkney (both of these being also now scarce) unsatisfactory in many important particulars, especially with rc ference to the period that the islands have been ah nexed to Scotland. And he has attempted to supply various defects, as well as to correct imper feet views, by having recourse to original records and papers, which were either inaccessible to those writers, or were passed over by them without due attention being bestowed upon the tenor of the original documents. To the legendary era of the Northern Islands, while they were subject to the Scandinavian power, he has paid little attention.
