Robert Forbes (1708-1775) was a Scottish Non-juring Anglican bishop. He served as the bishop of Ross and Caithness for the Scottish Episcopal Church. In 1735 he went to Edinburgh, and was shortly appointed minister of the episcopal congregation at Leith. In September 1745, when Charles Edward Stuart was on his descent from the Highlands, Forbes was one of three episcopal clergymen who were arrested at St. Ninians, near Stirling, suspected of intending to join the rebels, confined in Stirling Castle till 4 February 1746, and in Edinburgh Castle until 29 May. In 1762 the episcopal clergy of Ross and Caithness elected him their bishop, and he was consecrated at Forfar on 24 June by the Primus of the Scottish Episcopal Church, William Falconer, with Bishops Andrew Gerard and Alexander. He continued to live at Leith, but made two visitations of his northern flock in 1762 and 1770. This edition of his Journals of his visitations, edited by Rev. J.B. Craven, includes a history of the Episcopal Church in Ross during the 18th century and a brief memoir of Bishop Forbes. The book is bound in the original dark green cloth covered boards with gold titling on the spine. The case of the book is in very good condition with shelf wear and some light soiling on the boards. The spine ends are bumped with wear and a little damage to the cloth on the spine ends. The contents are tight and clean with a a few pages near the start of the book having short pencil lines or marks on the fore margin. A name has been written on the half-title page and back of the front free endpaper and there is a bookplate on the front fixed endpaper. This copy appears to have been in the library of the Scottish historian R.W. Munro, and loosely inserted at the end of the book is a letter to Munro from Aubrey Halford-MacLeod (1914-2000), a retired diplomat who lived in Harris.
