Excerpt from The Covenanters, Vol. 1 of 2: A History of the Church in Scotland From the Reformation to the Revolution Students of History, and readers generally, have long felt the need of an adequate work, stating as concisely as possible the most important facts in the history of the Covenanters, exhibiting the exact terms of their religious and secular bonds and leagues, and tracing the growth of the spirit of freedom in Scotland, as that was affected by the life and work of the National Church from 1560 until 1690. During that era sacred and Civil affairs were much intermingled, so that the historian now has great difficulty in marking the boundary between the ecclesiastical and political spheres, and in Classifying the various facts which present themselves, as he endeavours faithfully to depict the influential men and women of that time. Certain definite conclusions regarding the Covenanters, as a rigid sect in the Christian Church, and as a restless, rebellious political party in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, have been arrived at by many students; and, as a general rule, a far from favourable estimate of these brave and defensible patriots has been based upon generalisations which will not bear investigation. Perhaps unintentionally Sir Walter Scott, by his marvellous creation of characters, of which the less worthy-as Ruskin pointed out have influenced the popular judgment, while the more virtuous and delightful have been left out of consideration, helped to defame one of the most extraordinary orders of devotees which the civilised world ever saw. An absolutely impartial account of the Covenanters was therefore a desideratum. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Fifty Years Struggle of the Scottish Covenanters, 1638-88 The following Work was originally prepared as a Course of Lectures, which I have delivered, at intervals of leisure, in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Liverpool, and several other of our large towns. This will account for the direct style of address which frequently occurs throughout the volume. It will be seen that this little work does not pretend to be an exhaustive history of the period selected, or properly a history at all. It is only a series of descriptive sketches, meant to represent in outline the successive phases of the Covenanting struggle. The subject is a noble one for a history, having an epic completeness - a beginning, middle, and end - with its clearly-defined half century; and I hope that some one having more ability, and more time than I have for literary labour, will yet under take the task. The main body of the narrative has been based on a careful collation of the best authorities - those contemporary, or nearly contemporary with the events. Amongst the host consulted and analysed.

Excerpt from The Covenanters in Moray and Ross IN response to a request conveyed to me at a public meeting held in Nairn to welcome me back, after an absence of sixteen years, to the scene of my former labours, I have agreed to issue a Second Edition of these Lectures which have been now for several years out of print, but are still inquired for in the North of Scotland. I should have liked to have re-written them, adding a supplementary chapter on the Religious History of Moray since the Revolution, but my visit to Europe, undertaken for purpose of health, being limited, I must content myself with a few corrections and the addition of an explanatory note or two. For the same reason, I must leave the correction of the press to the publishers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1837 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAP. X. New measures resorted to for destroying the covenanters--extensive powers conferred on the military--their barbarity--conventicles assume a warlike attitude--hoax on the town major of Edinburgh--prosecution of Mr. William Veitch--his narrow escape --Earl of Shaftesbury's speech in the English parliament--dreadful cruelties committed on the covenanters--violent act against conventicles--the presbyterians driven almost to despair--a party of them form a plot against Carroichael--they accidentally fall in with Archbishop Sharpe, and resolve to take away his life--death of the primate--the covenanters vindicated from approving of assassinationmurder of Andrew Ayton of Inchdairnie--reflections. The year 1679 commenced with still more dreadful enactments against the covenanters. All the sufferings indeed to which they had been hitherto exposed, were trifling in comparison to those which from this period were carried on for nine years with a barbarity that has no parallel except in the proceedings of the apostate church of Rome. Various consultations had taken place in the council towards the close of the precedingyear respecting the suppression of conventicles, the regulating of the forces, and the collecting of the cess. The following " overtures," which were drawn up by the committee for public affairs on the 9th of January, and submitted to Charles for his approbation, were the result of these deliberations: --That the council be empowered to appoint sheriffdeputef and other officers to enforce the laws against intercommuned ministers, supporters of conventicles, and all who absent themselves from their own parish churches: that the military be commanded to disperse all meetings at conventicles by force of arms, and be indemnified...
