growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve

in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these

Originally published in 1811. The General Views of the Agriculture
of the Counties of Scotland were an effective companion to the
First Statistical Account. Although accounts of individual parishes
are not included, the attention to detail provided gives a
revealing portrait of the day-to-day circumstances of the
substantial rural population at the end of the eighteenth century.
Far more informative than the Statistical Account in terms of the
reality of life. Contents include chapters on geographical
background, the State of property, Buildings, Mode of Occupation,
Implements, Enclosures, Arable Land, Grass, Gardens, Woods,
Livestock, the Rural economy, Political Economy, and obstacles to
improvement.
