Vindication Of Orkney: In Answer To Notes On Orkney, By Alexander Peterkin (1823) is a book written by Walter Traill. The book is a response to Alexander Peterkin's Notes on Orkney, which was published in 1823. In his book, Traill defends the history and culture of Orkney, a group of islands off the coast of Scotland, against Peterkin's criticisms. He argues that Peterkin's work is inaccurate and biased, and presents evidence to support his claims. The book covers a range of topics, including the history of Orkney, its people and customs, and its natural resources. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of Orkney, and provides a fascinating insight into the debates and controversies that surrounded the study of the islands in the early 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
