Omschrijving

Disblair, 1634-1884: Or An Old Oak Panel And Something Thereon is a historical book written by Alexander Walker in 1884. The book tells the story of Disblair, a Scottish estate that has been in the same family for over 250 years. The author focuses on an old oak panel that was discovered in the estate's dining room during renovations in the 1800s. The panel is inscribed with the names of the estate's past owners and their significant events, including battles, marriages, and deaths. Walker uses the panel as a starting point to explore the history of Disblair and its inhabitants. He provides detailed accounts of the estate's architecture, landscape, and social structure. He also delves into the personal lives of the estate's owners, discussing their relationships, accomplishments, and scandals. The book is written in a narrative style, with Walker using vivid language to bring the characters and events to life. He draws on a range of sources, including letters, diaries, and official documents, to create a comprehensive and engaging account of Disblair's history. Overall, Disblair, 1634-1884: Or An Old Oak Panel And Something Thereon is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in Scottish history, architecture, or genealogy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
