Seller's Description:
New. 1905267053. *** FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request ***-*** IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT-Flawless copy, brand new, pristine, never opened--144 pages; 4 color illustrations. Description: "A tall man with a shepherd's plaid over a tweed suit, Hugh Miller was a familiar sight rambling in Victorian-era Scotland through Edinburgh's streets. He was famous throughout the English-speaking world for his eloquence and powers of observation, and popularized the notion of fossil collecting and experiencing nature. Miller's books, such as 'Scenes and Legends of the North of Scotland', along with his theories of evolutionary biology brought him the recognition of the larger scientific community. Also as a muckraking journalist and social reformer, he condemned the Highland Clearances that led to the eviction of hundreds of thousands of families from their lands in the process of modernizing agriculture and supported the Free Church after the 'Disruption of the Church of Scotland. ' 'Hugh Miller' brings this genius to a wider audience. Now, recent scholarships reassessing 19th century scientific and religious debates, are leading to a fuller appreciation of this complex, neglected figure."--with a bonus offer--
