Sinossi
On the Orkney island of Rousay, between the years 1840 and 1890, an extraordinary conflict raged between the landowner, Burroughs, and the Crofters on his property. The scene was almost that of a Greek tragedy in which landlord and tenant fought each other on the national stage to the bitter end, where no compromise was possible, and where neither side could or would, back down. This brilliant story now reprinted, is full of great characters and incident and is told against the dark gales of economic change. Burroughs nearly succeeded in driving off all his tenants, and his behavior instigated a special Act of Parliament, directed specifically against him.
