Buch Erstausgabe Signiert
Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good Minus. No Jacket. First Edition. Maroon cloth with gold gilt spine and cover titles. Signed by the author on the front free endpaper. Some wear at the spine ends and lower tips. Spine darkened a bit and the gilt on the spine is gone, but the spine titles are still prefectly readable. Prior owner's bookplate inside on the paste down. Numerous B&W illustrations. Fascinating history of the Scottish pioneers who played such an important role in the establishment of many New England towns. The book begins with several chapters describing how English persecution prompted a migration of impoverished Scotch-Presbyterians in the early 17th century. This hardy breed left their highland homes for the counties of Northern Ireland, where they became known as the Ulster Scots. They served the English as a sort of buffer against the wrath of the Irish Catholics, who were being persecuted and oppressed. The hardships faced by the Ulster Scots in Ireland prepared them to become bulwarks in the even harsher environment of the New World's frontier. In 1718 the continued longing for economic prosperity and religious freedom instigated another great wave of Scotch-Presbyterian migration--this time from Ulster to the colonies of New England. In the next sixty years, Scotch-Presbyterians established nearly one hundred new settlements. This book touches on the origins of all these colonial towns and on Blandford, Massachusetts, in particular. The distinguished service of the Scottish descendants in Blandford who served as scouts in the French and Indian wars is also recounted. The volume includes elaborate genealogical tables down to the time of the Revolution as well as indices of names, places and subjects. Numerous illustrations, bibliography. 436pp. Signed by Author(s).
