Books, Manuscripts
There has been much research on sheep farming in relation to the Highland Clearances, but far less investigation of the subsequent decline of hill sheep farming and the development of deer forests. This text tells the story of the rapid and extensive development of the deer forest system in the Highlands in the late 19th century.
