It is a tribute to the vigour of research and development in
aquaculture that we are able, in a relatively short time, to
provide readers with a second volume in this series, which has such
a diversity of high calibre research and developments to report.
That the first volume was so well received has been a source of
great satisfaction to the editors and supported their conviction as
to the need for links to join the research laboratory to the fish
farm by making current research available to a wider range of
potential users.

In the early history of Halifax (1749-1766), debt litigation was
extremely common. People from all classes frequently used
litigation and its use in private matters was higher than almost
all places in the British Empire in the 18th century. In Law, Debt,
and Merchant Power, James Muir offers an extensive analysis of the
civil cases of the time as well as the reasons behind their
frequency. Muir's lively and detailed account of the individuals
involved in litigation reveals a paradoxical society where debtors
were also debt-collectors. Law, Debt, and Merchant Power
demonstrates how important the law was for people in their business
affairs and how they shaped it for their own ends.

This is an annotated transcription of the Rev. Dr. James Muir's
personal diary from 1805. Born in Ayrshire, Scotland in 1757, Rev.
Muir served as the third minister of the Presbyterian Church in
Alexandria, Virginia, now known as the Old Presbyterian Meeting
House, from 1789 until his death in 1820. The Old Presbyterian
Meeting House was originally known as Alexandria's Presbyterian
Church and then as its First Presbyterian Church. Rev. Muir's diary
provides a historical document that, in its account of a single
calendar year in the life of one individual, both raises and
answers questions about a bygone era. It also provides a historical
guide to aspects of the remarkable heritage that continues to this
day in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia; a heritage that exists today
in the vibrant religious community of the Old Presbyterian Meeting
House and in the larger community, where the streets that Muir
walked, and so many of the houses and places he visited still
exist. A discussion of Alexandria in 1805, an examination of the
original diary and its transcription, and a biographical sketch of
Rev. Muir precede the diary. Appendices include: the diary's title
page and handwritten notes that appear on end pages of the diary, a
list of the Bible texts of sermons by Rev. Dr. Muir during 1805 (in
the order delivered), and a list of the published works of the Rev.
Muir. A bibliography and an index to full-names, places and
subjects enhance the text.
