The Trial of Archibald Stewart Esq; Late Lord Provost of Edinburgh, Before the High Court of Justiciary in Scotland, for Neglect of Duty, and Misbehaviour ... as Lord Provost of Edinburgh, 1745
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.This collection reveals the history of English common law and Empire law in a vastly changing world of British expansion. Dominating the legal field is the Commentaries of the Law of England by Sir William Blackstone, which first appeared in 1765. Reference works such as almanacs and catalogues continue to educate us by revealing the day-to-day workings of society.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Four despatches by the C in C of the Egyptian Expeditionary Force during his period in command from January 1916-June 1917, not published in their full original text prior to this publication. Fourth despatch contains letter from War Office, included as a condition for authority to publish the despatch.There are four despatches covering Sir Archibald Murray's period in command (Jan 1916-June 1917) and until publication of this book they had never been published in their full original text. This was especially true of the fourth despatch, dated 28th June 1917 which Murray was permitted by the War Office to publish on the condition that a letter from them was published at the same time. The first part of this despatch refers to the frequently changing directives laid down by the War Cabinet regarding tasks for the EEF - defensive one day, offensive the next coupled with a failure to meet the the request for the number of divisions needed to carry out the objectives laid down. The letter, signed by the secretary to the Army Council, was a model of damage limitation stating that the changes in policy were were based on the wider considerations than just those of the Egyptian campaign, which would not be apparent to the reader of the despatch.The first despatch deals with operations from 10th January to 31st May 1916. It was a period of a great deal of troop movement - divisions withdrawing from Gallipoli via Egypt and from France to Salonika with all the administrative backup needed for the Salonika force. The second despatch covers the period 1st June to 30th September 1916 during which the Battle of Romani was fought (4/5 August). The third despatch takes the story up to 28th February 1917 and the fourth and final one brings us to Murray's handover of command to Allenby on 28th June 1917. The principle actions described in this despatch are the First and Second Battles of Gaza, both of which were Turkish victories inflicting in all some 10,000 casualties. It was these failures that led to Murray's replacement by Allenby.

This book draws on the life of Presbyterian minister and diarist Archibald Simpson (1734–1795) to examine the history of evangelical Protestantism in South Carolina and the British Atlantic during the last half of the eighteenth century. Although he grew up in the evangelical heartland of Scotland in the wake of the great mid-century revivals, Simpson spurned revivalism and devoted himself instead to the grinding work of the parish ministry. At age nineteen he immigrated to South Carolina, where he spent the next eighteen years serving slaveholding Reformed congregations in the lowcountry plantation district. Here powerful planters held sway over slaves, families, churches, and communities, and Simpson was constantly embattled as he sought to impose an evangelical order on his parishes. In refusing to put the gospel in the pockets of planters who scorned it—and who were accustomed to controlling their parish churches—he earned their enmity. As a result, every relationship was freighted with deceit and danger, and every practice—sermons, funerals, baptisms, pastoral visits, death narratives, sickness, courtship, friendship, domestic concerns—was contested and politicized. In this context, the cause of the gospel made little headway in Simpson’s corner of the world. Despite the great midcentury revivals, the steady stream of religious dissenters who poured into the province, and all the noise they made about slave conversions, Simpson’s story suggests that there was no evangelical movement in colonial South Carolina, just a tired and frustrating evangelical slog.
