Public Administration in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Public Administration in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland This book was nearly completed in 1914, and only deals with the circumstances before the outbreak of war. The parts dealing with the structure and finance of the administrative authorities are descriptive of the present structure and of the financial position in 1912-13. The historical narrative, which is contained in the part on the functions of the authorities, tends to drift towards the Western Islands, where the difficulties have always been best exemplified and most acute. Since the problem in the Highlands and Islands is essentially a rural one, and to avoid overloading the book, no mention has been made of burghal government. On the other hand, the Central Authorities are described in some detail to meet the needs of English readers unfamiliar with the peculiarities of the Scottish branches of the Executive. On my return from France I wrote the conclusion, and brought the work up to date with regard to fresh legislation, but no attempt has been made to deal with the abnormal conditions occasioned by the War. I wish to express my gratitude to Mr. James Malloch, Professor D'Arcy Thompson, Mr. W. H. Blyth-Martin, and Mr. H. M. Conacher for allowing me to consult books in their possession; and especially to Professor W. R. Scott, who has taken a kindly interest in this book since its inception, and to whose unfailing courtesy and generous help I am much indebted. For the few opinions expressed in the book, I alone am responsible. I desire also to acknowledge the assistance of the Carnegie Trust for the Universities of Scotland, who have granted me a guarantee, up to £100, against possible loss in the publication of this work.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book brings together a rich selection of up-to-date practical experience of EU regional policy from across Europe. It provides different perspectives on the design and operation of regional development strategies under the Structural Funds, from people closely involved in studying, managing or advising on the process at EU, national and regional levels. It therefore offers a more comprehensive and detailed understanding of the structural policies than has been available hitherto. This will prove particularly useful to researchers, practitioners and students interested in European regional policies and processes.
Clan Donald

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis volume presents a detailed history of this Scottish noble lineage from the medieval Lords of the Isles to the mid–eighteenth century. Clan Donald is not the history of one clan, but of several important clans that descend from the old Kingdom of Macdonald. Each of these clans played its part in the history of Scotland until the fateful Battle of Culloden in 1746. Covering a period of six hundred years, the narrative begins with Somerled and the foundation of the Lordship of the Isles. It traces the narrative through the downfall of the Lordship in 1493 and the various branches that arose thereafter. The book then culminates in an overview of how the Celtic and Roman Churches were influenced by Clan Donald. Based on the original, three-volume edition of Clan Donald—first published between 1896 and 1904—this all-encompassing reference book is essential for members of the Clan as well as students of the Western Highlands and Isles.
