Adam, M.A. Volume 1 ★ ★ EDINBURGH printed for the Scottish History Society by T. AND A. CONSTABLE LTD 1972 © Scottish History Society 1972 •$> B 134 FEC x 19 73/ ' SBN 9500260 3 4 (set of two volumes) SBN 9500260 4 2 (this volume) Printed in Great Britain PREFACE The Society’s invitation to edit these volumes came when I was already engaged on a detailed study of the history of the Sutherland Estate in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. That being so, it was necessary to decide on the precise division of material between this work and the book which I hope to publish on the wider aspects of the history of the estate. The decision taken by my fellow-editor, the late Mr A. V. Cole (Senior Lecturer in Economics in the Uni- versity of Leicester, and one-time Lecturer in Political Economy in the University of St Andrews), and myself was to publish evidence which would illustrate the general working of the estate manage- ment, and to concentrate in the introduction, where space was neces- sarily limited, upon the economic aspects of estate policy. It was our intention, on account of our different disciplinary approaches, that I should assume responsibility for selection and textual preparation, while Mr Cole should analyse the material from an economic stand- point and write a major part of the introduction. I was fortunate to have Mr Cole’s help and guidance in the early stages of selection, and to come to know something of his thinking on the broad issues presented by the evidence.
