Traces of a Banffshire/Moray family's journey through these hundred years. This volume describes the Newlands seeking Terra Nova; the end of the life of crofting with a skilled trade as a way of living in this corner of Scotland; the call of a new life in many parts of the world and how families "fought back against Corn Laws and crop failures to find their future in a newly industrialized Britain and expanding empire." It is a complex story of many families probably all from one Urquhart family who, driven by necessity, use their abilities, determination and enterprise to find a new life and settle their families in Terra Nova, Their future includes engineering, welding, mining, medicine, building, architecture, law, IT, teaching and policing, electrical engineers or farming and related trades, including artists and statesmen and more and more. Many contemporary Newlands have contributed making it altogether a personal tale.
