@bevy_de James Grant (1880), 'Old and New Edinburgh', makes for an excellent read and where my pinned #TreatyOfUnion tweet is from. Only volume 1 of 3 uploaded so far.

@bevy_de Donald McLeod (1892), 'Gloomy Memories', is a complete run down, from witness testimony, of the #Clearances from a Sutherland native. Being a later edition it includes newspaper articles from Canada showing their disgust with the British authorities.
