Presentation copy, inked inscription to recto of FFEP: 'Earl of Ancram / with the author's compliments'. The first edition of Thomas Douglas, Earl of Selkirk's (1771-1820) principal work, a major contribution to political economy and the debate over the emigration crisis in Scotland, in which, as a staunch proponent of the colonization of North America, he emphasises the illogical self- interest of the various objections against highland emigration to the continent, arguing that highlanders were entitled to move to preserve their language, culture, and manners. The work is in part a defence of his continued efforts to recruit Scottish settlers for his colony on…

The author's presentation copy of this interesting look at the Highlands, the author presenting his idea that emigration would help the country's economy. The first edition.Author's presentation copy, inscribed to the recto of the front endpaper, 'Duke of Somerset, with the author's compliments'.Half-title is present. Errata slip bound after page vi. An interesting look at the Scottish Highlands; perhaps of most interest is the author's discussion on emigration to the Highlands, with the author's concerns being focused on the economic plight of the country, believing that increasing the population through emigration would help the Highlands thrive. This work was partly written by the author to defend his ideas of such colonisation, after having bought land in Prince Edward Island and settling a community of poor Scottish farmers there.Inscribed to Edward St. Maur,…

Former owner's label on front pastedown. Occasional spots. In 1792, Thomas Douglas, 5th Earl of Selkirk, undertook an extensive tour through the Scottish Highlands and became convinced that emigration from the troubled district was unavoidable. Recognizing the need of a controlling hand to direct the migration, he conceived the idea of settlememnt at Red River (now Winnipeg) but this did not occur until 1811. This work was partly written as a defence against various reports spread concerning the improbability of his colonization schemes. He speaks of the tide of emigration to the USA and suggests that this emigration might be turned to Canada. He speaks at length of the success of his settlement at Prince Edward Island which he founded in 1803 when his first attempts at Red River did not meet with success. TPL 766, Lande 1440, Peel 30,…

London: Printed For Longman, Hurst, Rees, And Orme., 1805., 1805. 8vo. pp. vii, [1]blank, 223, [1]blank, lvi. with half-title. later quarter morocco (spine rubbed, a few leaves browned). First Edition. The Earl of Selkirk developed a particular concern for the economic plight of the Scottish Highlanders, which was heightened during an extensive tour undertaken in 1792. Convinced that emigration was the only possible solution, he developed colonization schemes centred on Prince Edward Island, Upper Canada, and the Red River (what is now Winnipeg). This work was written partially to defend himself against the numerous slanderous reports as to his motives in promoting colonization. It presents an accurate and clearly written assessment of the political and economic conditions in Scotland at the time, the possibilities offered by Canada, and a fairly lengthy discussion of the successful Scottish settlement at Prince Edward Island.
