I have written an historical novel based on Scottish Highland history from 1746 to 1808. It takes place on the Isle of Mull in the Highlands of Scotland. It begins with the birth of my Scottish ancestor, Anna Maclean, in 1785. The novel presents the lifestyle, struggles, holidays, and historic events in a tale about the lives of several Scottish Highlanders. It also includes the flora and fauna which created the beautiful landscape of the Highlands. Through Anna, a white witch (a healer) descriptions of the diseases of this time are described. Anna using the healing qualities of many of the plants found in the area helps heal and relieve many of the symptoms of the common diseases of the time period. Religious practices as well as the superstitions of the time are interwoven into the lives of these families. The narration presents the struggles of these folks in trying to understand the role of God in contrast to their old beliefs in black witches and monsters. The novel concludes by depicting the devastating impact that the dissolution of the clans had on its followers. The clan system was replaced by a ruling class system of lairds and chiefs used the croft farmers of the highlands for their own economic gain, eventually evicting the croft farmers from their small rig farms frequently by cruel and inhumane methods. They replaced the small farms with large, more profitable enclosures of sheep. This upheaval called the Clearances took about 100 years and changed the whole character of the Highlands. All these changes are depicted through the tale of several families from Inivea. Thousands of these farmers emigrated eventually from their Highlands by sailing to North America, Australia and New Zealand. The book ends as my ancestors, Donald and Anna Campbell, sail to Prince Edward Island aboard a large ship.

Hi, An experienced and skilled writer with impeccable grammar skill, strong visual awareness, and insists on spelling perfection, you can rest assured that anytime I edit, proofread, and analyze a document of any size it will be returned in tip-top shape and free from errors. Grammatical perfection is a necessity in a finished document, and I will analyze, modify, revise, and reword as necessary so you will be left with a superior finished product. I also do all my editing, proofing, and rewriting manually without the use of any online rewriting programs. When quality counts, contact me. Best regards, James Walpole

Editing, modifying, and rewriting are a tremendous piece of what I do everyday . Each written work task I go up against must be syntactically right and looked over for any conceivable mix-ups. I don't acknowledge or submit less than impressive work. Actually, anything that needs amendment is sent back to me to be changed until it is prefect. I have superb relational abilities and effectively take careful guidelines, guaranteeing that our customers are constantly happy with the nature of our work.
