    Scottish Highlanders in colonial Georgia : the recruitment, emigration and settlement at Darien, 1735-1748

    No full text
    This volume is a study of the immigration of three individual groups of Scottish Highlanders as they ventured to the new colony of Georgia in British North America between the years 1735 and 1748. It examines the importance of the area of the Altamaha River in which they settled and the conflicts along the southern frontier of British colonial America between the rival powers of Great Britain, Spain, France, and the Native American population. These struggles would necessitate the organised recruiting efforts made on the part of the Trustees for Establishing the Colony of Georgia in America to bring Highland Scots, in particular, to the province as their first line of defense. The focus of the text is on the Scots themselves as the changing conditions in the Highlands motivated them to leave their native glens of Scotland to come to the pine barrens of Georgia. The thesis explores the ability of these immigrants to face the challenges of a new environment and the trials of the frontier settlement at Darien. It is an account of how their cultural distinctiveness and "old world" experience aptly prepared them to adapt and to prosper in the new land and to play a vital role in the survival of colonial Georgia. The Highlanders of Scotland who settled at Darien during the first two decades of the colony's existence have been relegated to the shadows of Georgia's colonial history for too long and this work hopes to establish their importance during this crucial period

    Selected features and locations shown pictorially ; Includes index ; "Most humbly inscribed to the Rt. Honble. Sir Charles Wager, first Lord Commissioner of the Admiralty" -- head of titleThis 1742 map of Cartagena is addressed to Sir Charles Wager, Lord Commissioner of the Admiralty. The inscription describes the map as a depiction of the British fleet, anchoring near the town and preparing to lay siege to it. The map includes a list of ships and other important details in a reference section at the bottom. The colorful map features sketches of terrain and trees as well as illustrative depictions of landmarks. The very bottom of the map sheet includes a price for plain and colored versions of the map—one or two shillings respectively. Cartagena was an important hub city for colonial Europe, and Britain attempted to lay siege to the city in 1741. The Battle of Cartagena de Indias was part of war between England and Spain for control of trading opportunities in the Caribbean. After suffering a defeat in San Felipe Barajas, the British were forced to abandon their siege. LPM.Color1:42,24

    Kinesin-14 motor proteins step towards microtubule minus ends, in the opposite direction to other kinesins. Work on the still-enigmatic kinesin-14 mechanism published in BMC Structural Biology shows that the carboxyl terminus of the motor head undergoes a dock-undock cycle, like that of plus-end-directed kinesins
