The Lady Jean Fforde | ||
ARRAN JOURNAL is a book which The Lady Jean Fforde had the foresight to have published. Bound in bottle green, this is a Facsimile of the two volumes written by John Burrell dating from 1776, in which the land of the Isle of Arran is surveyed, and suggestions made for its allocation and usage. Many family names are mentioned in this survey, and there are some interesting
historical accounts, such as the arrival of a "plague ship"
in Brodick. 150 copies only were made. Only 31 remain. |
