Statistical Accounts of Scotland : ウィキペディア英語版 | Statistical Accounts of Scotland
The ''Statistical Accounts of Scotland'' are a series of documentary publications, related in subject matter though published at different times, covering life in Scotland in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. The ''Old (or First) Statistical Account of Scotland'' was published between 1791 and 1799 by Sir John Sinclair of Ulbster. The ''New (or Second) Statistical Account of Scotland'' published under the auspices of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland between 1834 and 1845. These first two Statistical Accounts of Scotland are among the finest European contemporary records of life during the agricultural and industrial revolutions. A ''Third Statistical Account of Scotland'' was published between 1951 and 1992. ==Early attempts==
Attempts at getting an accurate picture of the geography, people and economy of Scotland had been attempted in the 1620s and 1630s, using the network of about 900 ministers of the established Church of Scotland. The time and resources involved, not to mention the troubled times of the Civil Wars, led to limited results.
